These past few months there are talks and now implementation of phasing out the Philippines' "King of the Road" - the Jeepney. The Jeepney, which is not just your average cheap transportation, it also has been part of the Filipinos' life journey through decades of colonization, hardships and day to day struggle of living in the Philippines mostly by the low and medium income class. It short, the lowly Jeepey is already embedded in the Filipinos lifeblood just like balut, bagoong, dirty ice cream, taho and the like.
Our government has decided to upgrade these motorized beasts
of burden for the purpose of probably the following which for me is justifiable
:
1. They are "running smokestacks" or smoke belchers. Which contributes to the causes of lung illnesses.
2. They are also somewhat "running coffins" (pardon my candor). If you are updated by the local current news, almost everyday aside from motorcycle accidents you would also hear news about car accidents involving jeepneys mostly as a result of failure in mechanical safety devices. This probably is due to their dilapidated condition which is also I can say to some of the provincial and city buses.
3. Large contributor to the greenhouse effect or carbon emissions. As they are very inefficient being old, gas guzzler and not well-maintained.
Everyday you would see this vehicle traversing the small
streets of Manila at 30 kilometers per hour taking its time, stopping at every
corner of the street loading and unloading passengers in the middle of the
street with no regards if they are causing traffic. While the brute-sized
jeepneys zigzagging the roads to Cubao and Pasig.
With these developments, protests and "tigil pasadas" (no trip) are transpiring. A good alternative the government should look into is the "HHO Generator". HHO generation for vehicles would be a very good option for the government and for the Jeepney operators and drivers.

What is HHO generation ?
HHO generation is a process in which one can produce
hydrogen as fuel for gasoline and diesel engines from water with a little
modification or addition of a small apparatus to the engine. It is the process
of running electric current in water thus breaking them into water's basic
molecule components which are two oxygen and one hydrogen. The by-product of
the combustion of hydrogen is steam or plain water vapor. Which will help
reduce the World's global warming.
can also be bought online |
a more commercial type of HHO generator |
With this, we can solve the smoke belcher or "running smokestack" problem while the "running coffin" problem can be addressed little by little say giving the Jeepney operators ample time to repair, modify or upgrade their jeepneys. Also The government will state how long this upgrade of jeepney will be and increase the penalties of jeepneys involving in mechanical failure accidents.
A team of researchers must be formed as this is a gray area
in the field of renewable energy and who is the better person that would head
this team that believes and advocates renewable energy than Mr. Bongbong Marcos.
Mr. Bongbong Marcos advocates the wind energy of Ilocos. He is also pushing the
research in the production of "tritium" or heavy water in the deepest
part of our ocean. This gas is also very similar to the hydrogen gas that is
produce from the HHO generator.
Herein the Phillippines, there is an inventor of this HHO generator.
