MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Senator Robinhood Padilla has suggested that cable cars be installed in the country, especially in Metro Manila, as a way to ease the growing traffic problem.

Padilla made the suggestion in response to Senator JV Ejercito’s call to improve the country’s railway system.

In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles, Padilla said: “Marami nang kable na nakatiwangwang sa buong Pilipinas, kasama na ang Metro Manila. Bakit hindi natin gamitin ang mga ito para makapagtayo tayo ng cable cars sa ikabubuti ng trapiko?” (We already have many cables set up in the country, including Metro Manila. Why don’t we utilize them to set up cable cars to help ease the traffic situation?)

Ejercito and other senators seemed receptive to Padilla’s suggestion.
