Freedom that I relish the most are the freedom of mobility and
choice (of food).
Mobility is the ability to move around without any constraint
tapping available resources. In the city there are several: the most common and
often untapped is walking, the most efficient is the MRT Blue line that
traverses from North EDSA to EDSA Taft, the LRT1 Yellow Line from Monumento to
Baclaran and the LRT2 Purple line from Santolan in Pasig to Recto in Manila.
Other popular modes of transport are jeepneys, tricycles, taxicabs and a creation of the decade, the FX and a
creation out of need, habal-habal, Point to Point, Grab and Angkas.
Islands are crossed by air, land and sea.
Freedom to move around allows a wider freedom of choice of
food. Choosing is the prerogative to point, in the local language, point-point
or “turo-turo.”
Proof of the moving is in the eating.
