Im an avid reader of posts from Istorya.net and i came to noticed this striking post about Citoms which is quite true based on my experience as well as the peoples observation. Ive often heard complains from fellow jeepney passengers regarding CITOM's way of handling jaywalkings. Here's a piece of it from the post which i wanna share...
Mao ni ang tinoud nga STORYA.
Sa DALAN COLON, aduna kitay ordinansa nga gi tawag ug "JAYWALKING". Sa permero lang, kini nakapatabang gayud aron malikayan ang desgrasya. Apan sa kadugayan, nakabantay ba mo nga gihimo na kini ug NEGUSYU?
Ang mga CITOM dli mag atang sa lugar kung diin dli angay mo labang. ANg ilang buhaton, mo tago or mo barug dha sa lugar nga DILI SILA MAKITA. Sakto ba kana? Louy kaayu ang mga TAGA BUKID, mga TIGULANG nga gikan pa sa laing lugar dakpon ug pamultahon. Kung dli mo bayad, adunay SEMINAR nga "2HOURS" (Mao nay bag-o karon). Kalouy pud ni lolo ug lola tawn and ni Undong ug in Inday.
Ikaduha, nakahibalo ba kamo nga adunay ordinansa nga dakpon ang si bisan kinsa magpataka ug SAKAY sa Jeep Pasahero-an? Ug wla, kini angay ninyung masay-ran.
"Ang CITOM, adunay bag-o daw nga balaud nga kinahanglan adto ka mo sakay sa Jeepney STOP". Apan, ang nahitabo mao kini..... Ang mga CITOM sa DALAN COLON, dli na magbarug sa STOPPING AREA kay wla man silay madakpan. Ang ilang gibuhat, adto sila mag BARUG doul sa SHOPPING AREA mag pa atbang. Ug sa Dihang adunay makita nga nisakay sa jeep doul sa gaisano SOUTH, mo doul dayun na sila ug pakanaugon ang pasahero. Sa akong pagsabot, mura sila ug "BU-AYA nga nag ATANG ug TUKBONON".
Unsa man inyung ikasulti niini??
Happy New Year to everyone, fellow pinoys especially to fellow Cebuano's! Mabuhi tang tanan!

Female empowerment is embraced more today than any other time in world history. And in the global push for gender equality in everything from business to politics, education to health, it's Europe that has made the greatest strides to close the so-called gender gap.
Countries in the top 10 include Iceland (80%), New Zealand (79%), the Philippines (76%), Denmark (75%) and the Netherlands (74%). The U.K. ranked 13th (74%), while Canada ranked 31st (71%), hurt by poor showings in educational attainment and political empowerment.
