    ease traffic by ridding the streets of unregistered jeepney, buses etc. and all of us would be happy.

    leave these beautification projects to another agency.
    Not to beat a dead horse here but
    1. nobody else is going to do the urban beautification (and no that's not the DENR's job), so
    2. it's not a waste of taxpayer money and a useless sink of 2012 funding if they indeed embark on things like these, and
    3. it IS part of their main job.

    The MMDA drew flak a few years ago because they removed trees from EDSA. Now that they are returning some plant life to EDSA they get accused of not doing their jobs.

    Wow.

    But I agree that MMDA's traffic enforcement is pale, extremely anemic. Traffic enforcement in the Philippines is a joke, no credible teeth.
    I agree. The plants look good but the traffic enforcement of the MMDA has gone for the worse indeed. A lot of their enforcers are nothing more than traffic wavers, they're not consistently at their posts on time, and to me it seems i see less and less of them on the road today.

    Tutal nakatigil naman daw tayo sa traffic, pagagandahin daw nila yung mga tinitignan natin habang naghihintay umalis yung bus na nakaharang sa harap. :D

    While stuck in traffic, I noticed the plants seemed to be in need of watering...mukhang tumutuyo

    ^^^Yan ang mahirap...hindi sya basta basta ihahang ang plants and that's it...Hindi pwedeng random plants lang bukod pa sa mahirap magmaintain nyan...Kelangan alaga sa water, trim, etc...

What do you think of the MMDA's latest idea to "green" the metro?
