i learned that with the average monthly salary in the Philippines being $300 per month, many can’t afford vehicles or taxis. The Jeepney or “Jeep” as the locals call them are hundreds of old American WW2 transport vehicles that were repurposed as affordable buses. These jeeps are the most popular method of transportation around the city of Manila. A ride typically costs 12 pesos to your destination which is about 25 cents USD. Follow my personal twitter for videos and updates of my adventures as I travel Asia.

Public transportation hits a little differently in the Philippines. Jeepneys, like this one, are often painted with murals, and cost literally pennies to ride. (I'm still sad I never managed to get a good picture of the Deadpool Jeepney we spotted in Quezon City--I think it was Cubao).
I mean, yeah, we also have taxis, Grab, buses, trains, and--in the lowlands--"tricycles," which are motorcycle taxis with sidecars. But the jeepneys are kind of iconic.
Sadly, they're not very environmentally friendly, though, so there are plans to phase them out over time.

...This is the problem with any climate policy, big or small: It requires an imaginative leap. While the math of decarbonization and electric mobilization is clear, the future lifestyle it implies isn’t always. Right-wing commenters sometimes seize upon this fact to caricature any climate policy as a forced retreat from modernity — Americans forced to live in ecopods — while on the left any accounting seems to cloud the urgency of the moment. A majority of emissions come from just 100 or so corporations, activists argue, a concentration of industrial production that, once decarbonized, could slash the footprint beneath every wall sconce and sandwich. Even if it were true, these arguments conveniently ignore one uncomfortable fact: Walmart, Exxon Mobil and Berkshire Hathaway didn’t burn that fuel on their own — we paid them to, or burned it ourselves, because the way we live depends on it. By any standard, American lives have become excessive and indulgent, full of large homes, long trips, aisles of choices and app-delivered convenience. If the possibilities of the future are already narrowing to the one being painted by science with increasing lucidity, it strains even the most vivid imagination to picture it widening again without a change in behavior.
This isn’t an American crisis alone. All around the world, nations have locked themselves into unsustainable, energy-intensive lifestyles... [...]
The problem of reducing our footprints further isn’t that we don’t have models of sustainable living; it’s that few exist without poverty. Imagine another typical household, this time somewhere in the rural tropics, like the Mara region in northwestern Tanzania. You live with five or six others, your husband, parents, grandmother and perhaps two kids, in a 700-square-foot house without electricity, maybe one you built by hand from sun-dried bricks. You cook with firewood and pay for 3G with the few dollars a day you make. All around you, people are clearing forests for corn and rice, damaging ecosystems that otherwise pull carbon from the air. To give your kids a better life, you move to the city, and as you make more money, you rent a bigger house, take more buses, buy an air-conditioner. All these improvements add to your quality of life, ticking you upward on the Human Development Index, but also expand your carbon footprint — the two being so closely tied they could be proxies. No matter your vocation or luck, the only real way for you to make your life better is to burn more fossil fuels. So you do — collectively elevating your country out of those with a footprint close to zero (Afghanistan, the Central African Republic) and into those around two tons: India, the Philippines.
This is the paradox at the heart of climate change: We’ve burned far too many fossil fuels to go on living as we have, but we’ve also never learned to live well without them. As the Yale economist Robert Mendelsohn puts it, the problem of the future is how to create a 19th-century carbon footprint without backsliding into a 19th-century standard of living. No model exists for creating such a world, which is partly why paralysis has set in at so many levels. The greatest crisis in human history may require imagining ways of living — not just of energy production but of daily habit — that we have never seen before. How do we begin to imagine such a household?
Late last year, I traveled to Uruguay in hope of glimpsing one possibility....

Can you imagine some culture shock that the TWST boys and the school staffs when come to Philipine?
Got an ask similar to that a long time ago
But yeah, the culture shock js definitely there. Earth in general, gives the twst boys culture shock since the Nezumis reside in Muggle London where magic is isn’t used and is believed to be imaginary.
For this ask though, I’m going to pretend that they’re going a trip to the Philippines to visit Minako’s family somehow. They don’t have earth passports, so they ended up conjuring a travelling mirror in Minako’s Lola’s (grandma) house. They were lucky, that Lola Imelda was already quite used to the weird things that goes on with her grandchildren since she’s grown up with listening myths and running into duwende (elves, goblins, dwarves) in the woods.
Minako is such a menace everytime the family goes to the Philippines because she’s always listening in on mythical creature sightings and it gets her curious enough to go find them. Rook is no help at all because he goes on these creature spotting trip with her. She almost got themselves in trouble when they were ran into an aswang (pinoy umbrella term for evil shape-shifting ghouls, witches, vampires, or hybrids), but thanks to her she identified the aswang as a mananggal that was feeding off the fetuses and newborns around town. She had to sprinkle salt and crushed garlic around the house to protect her pregnant aunt.
The internet is also quite slow there, Idia and Cater are freaking out about it when there’s bad weather. Idia does his usual nerdy thing by somehow forcing the wifi to go faster.
The public transport has a lot of variety from jeepneys, buses, trains, even motor tricycles. Deuce is horrified but also fascinated by how one tricycle can fit seven people.
I like to think that the Nezumis travelled to the Philippines to celebrate the Ber months with their family (last 4 months of the year). Twisted Wonderland doesn’t have Christmas, but they have the Winter Holiday which is more about feasts and family rather than gifts. However, they have seen Christmas in London, and they know that the celebrations start immediately after Halloween. And then in the Lola’s house, the malls, the streets, they’re all decorated in Christmas decorations and it’s the beginning of September. Huh???
Oh well, at least they were given gifts.
That’s all I got for now I think.

Panther Express is a bus company from the past that, probably most of you who explore my blog will recognize it.
Buses from the 90s are no longer on the streets.
i would love to see Panther Express return.
anybody agree?
