00:00The gift of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to our fellow countrymen commuters in Metro Manila and nearby provinces is an early Christmas gift.
00:10This is a free ride, not just for a few hours but for the entire operation of these.
00:17That's why our fellow countrymen are very thankful for the gift in their wallets brought by Bernard Ferrero in Centro ng Balita Live.
00:30Actually, our fellow countrymen are continuously availing the free ride of LRT-1, particularly at Redemptorist Station.
00:42One of the main drivers of Light Rail Transit or LRT-1 is Rose.
00:47This is the first vehicle she drives to work.
00:50That's why she's happy with the free ride because she'll be able to ride it today.
00:57The free ride is a big help to us, especially with our budget.
01:02We are able to budget for the preparations.
01:09According to President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., the free ride is a simple way to reduce the expenses of our fellow countrymen who are busy preparing for Christmas.
01:19He said that it will ease the pain of the government this Christmas.
01:26Previously, 1.1 million passengers benefited from the free ride of LRT-1, LRT-2, and Metro Rail Transit or MRT-3.
01:36The majority of passengers on these lines are students and workers.
01:42Meanwhile, the passengers will surely be more comfortable because the footbridge next to LRT-1, Redemptorist Station,
01:50leads to the National Shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Health or better known as Baclaran Church.
01:57Redemptorist Station is one of the five new stations of LRT-1 Kabita Extension Phase 1
02:03in the first railway project completed under the administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.
02:09Angelique, computers are hoping that there will be free rides in the future because it will help with their budget.
02:18Yes, Bernard. Since there are no tickets, is there a way to count the number of passengers who enter the stations and ride the train?
02:28Angelique, when you enter the station of LRT-1, you are given a single journey ticket.
02:39You can also use a VIP card but the load will not be reduced.
02:43The number of passengers who enter each station of LRT-1 is counted by their personnel.
02:55Currently, there are 1.1 million passengers who benefit from the free rides of LRT-1, LRT-2 and LRT-3.
03:04That's a big help. Thank you very much, Bernard Ferrer.
