Public transport drivers in Manila have begun a three-day strike to protest soaring fuel prices, disrupting commutes across the Philippine capital. Drivers say rising fuel costs are squeezing their earnings, and the action is expected to pressure the government to provide relief such as subsidies or fare adjustments. The strike has drawn attention to the wider burden of fuel costs on ordinary workers in the Philippines.
Why now: Rising fuel prices have prompted a strike that disrupts daily transport for millions of Manila commuters.
