MANILA, Philippines – What’s on top of your wishlist now that the government is rebuilding EDSA?

Move As One Coalition organized a community walk along EDSA on Monday, May 26. Participants walked 22 kilometers from Makati City to Caloocan as a form of protest and to show the government the inhumane conditions commuters experience daily.

We asked participants about what they want the government to prioritize now that it is undertaking the rehabilitation of the country’s busiest and most congested highway.

Their wish? For the government to consider pedestrians in Metro Manila’s urban planning. – Rappler.com
