LIBRENG SAKAY DAHIL MAY ENGINEER NA SI TATAY! 🤗 A commuter shared her heartwarming experience of riding a jeepney for free upon learning that the driver’s child had passed the November 2025 Civil Engineers Licensure Exams. According to uploader Judy Tereso, she boarded the jeepney along Ramon Magsaysay Avenue in Davao City on Monday, December 1, 2025. She was touched to see a banner that read: “Libre lang po ang sakay ngayon bilang pasasalamat dahil pumasa po ang aking anak sa board exam bilang isang civil engineer.” “Sobrang genuine din ‘yung reaction ni tatay every time may bababa at magsabi ng 'thank you' at 'congrats' sa kanila ng anak niya. Such a wholesome experience na hanggang ngayon I am very blessed to encounter that ‘di na rin po nagpabayad si tatay kahit anong insist namin,” Tereso told The Philippine STAR. Tereso shared that the jeepney driver’s son, Dave Rusty Recososa, reached out to her after the video went viral. The 25-year-old board exam passer from the University of Mindanao said he was delighted to see netizens appreciating the initiative of his 52-year-old father, Edwin, who has been working as a jeepney driver for almost 35 years. “Pagkakita ko po sa video, sobrang nakakatuwa talaga po kasi madaming nakaappreciate sa ginawa ni papa. Dati pa talaga niya sinabi na if ever po papasa ako sa Board Exam, magpapalibre po talaga siya ng sakay and ngayon masaya ako na natupad ko yun para sa kanya,” Dave told The STAR.

‘THE FILIPINO PEOPLE DESERVE A GOVERNMENT FOCUSED ON SOLVING PROBLEMS’ Vice President Sara Duterte said the government has become “more preoccupied with protecting power than serving the people,” citing alleged attempts to silence critics. “A government that fears dissent is not demonstrating strength. It is revealing insecurity. And that insecurity is reflected in the direction our country is taking today,” Duterte remarked in a video statement Tuesday. Duterte cited the flood control controversy, her impeachment trial, and the charter change, saying those issues revealed “disturbing realities.” “The current state of our nation reveals three disturbing realities: first, the effort to divert attention from legitimate questions surrounding the flood control controversy; second, the willingness to disregard constitutional safeguards in pursuit of a politically motivated impeachment; and third, the relentless pursuit of greater political power under the guise of Charter Change,” she claimed. Duterte formally responded to impeachment articles on Monday, as the Senate is set to begin the trial on July 6, 2026.
