PROBE ON TRANSPORT EMERGENCY POWERS RESUMES: Senate Committee on Public Services Chair Senator Grace Poe fields questions to officials of the Department of Transportation and other representatives from the transport sector during the resumption of the hearing on Thursday, August 25, 2016, on the emergency powers being sought for the Duterte administration to address the transport crisis. Poe said that the public needs to be consulted on what emergency powers should be granted to the executive branch, noting that most transportation solutions fail “because they suffer from the handicap of not consulting the people.” Also in photo are from left to right, Senator Emmanuel “Manny” Pacquiao, Senate President Pro Tempore Franklin Drilon, and Senator Leila de Lima.
