PNR plans to bring back its own bus service

The question now is this: Will it push through?

“The Department of Justice (DOJ) found no legal impediment for the Philippine National Railways (PNR) to revive its bus service system which used to operate in the early 1970s,” reports ABS-CBNnews.com.

In a two-page legal opinion issued by Justice Secretary Leila de Lima upon the request of PNR general manager Joseph Allan Dilay, she stated that “the PNR’s plan to operate a bus service system is well within its mandate, under Republic Act No. 4156, which created the PNR.”

Dilay had noted that the PNR is “planning to revive its bus services, due to an increasing clamor from the riding public.”
