This e-mail is currently circulating in the internet. My thought is… why avoid using C5? Our taxes go to the construction and maintenance of our roads and highways. It would be such a waste not to use our thoroughfares. Ok…a bit off-handed.
I understand the sentiment of the author but let’s not give evil a chance. These things happen because we let them. Kudos to the author for raising the flag on this issue. We as a citizen have an ever more important role in society by putting to light these kinds of issues…and getting the attention of proper authorities whose job is to secure every inch of space in this nation.
As mentioned by the author, “most taxi drivers are wary of passengers whose destination is the Maharlika Highway”, which means that this type of incident has occurred multiple times. So what are the authorities doing?
I am very familiar with this part of Taguig as I use it almost on a weekly basis as my through point from Paranaque to Ortigas and back. But stories like this won’t stop me from taking this road to my destination. But thanks to stories like this that I will ever be more vigilant.
