Transport strike fails in regions

As classes in almost all public schools started on Monday, the Pinagkaisang Samahan ng mga Tsuper at Operators Nationwide (Piston) also staged a massive transport strike but failed since most jeepney drivers, particularly in the provinces, did not participate.

In Tarlac, drivers and operators of 3M, the city’s main jeepney transportation, said they opted to ply their usual routes to meet their families’ needs.
