Manila Stopover: Riding in Style

There are about 12 million people living in Metro Manila. I don't have the exact statistics on how many million commuters there are everyday.

The common means of mass transportation in this busy metropolis are the jeepney, the metro bus, the MRT/LRT, and the AUV or in local term, FX. There are also taxi, tricycle, pedicab, and "kuliglig".

In my commuting experience, I chose to focus only the the three common mass transportation: the jeep, the bus, and the MRT. I will try to describe why these mode of transportation has made an impact on me that lead me to blog about it.
