Several transport organizations will hold a three-day transport strike on Aug. 10 to 12, the group Manibela announced on Monday, Aug. 3.
The scheduled strike, the latest since the last one held from July 22 to 23, is their protest against the relentless oil price hikes, the transport group said.
This week, motorists may expect some relief as oil companies implement price roll back on Tuesday, Aug. 4, after weeks of increases in oil prices. Based on fuel price movements, diesel prices are expected to go down by P0.50 to P1.00 per liter, while gasoline prices may decrease by P1.00 to P1.50 per liter.
Last week, oil prices increased by P6.80 per liter for gasoline, P7.32 per liter for diesel, P4.22 per liter for kerosene. /jpv
