It added that if MPIC pursues this plan, it could be a ground for their disqualification from the P1.72 billion Automatic Fare Collection System (AFCS) project. This was a concession agreement they signed with the government providing for a single ticketing scheme for the country’s rail lines including MRT 3, MRT 2, and the Light Rail Transit Line 1.
