Classes suspended, thousands stranded as jeepneys strike

"...at least five major jeepney organizations in Metro Manila refused to ply their routes starting 6 a.m.
...Among their concerns are...the planned phaseout of jeepneys"

Ummm... let me get this straight.

Jeepneys went on strike for a day by not plying their routes because of the planned phaseout where they will not be able to ply their routes forever?

Don't you just love living here in the Philippines?
