Many people I know can't believe I take the point-to-point (P2P) bus from Ayala One to the Ateneo, instead of being in the chauffeur-driven, air-conditioned comfort of a Grab or private car. The first P2P buses I took, as a sixth-grader in 1975, went from Cubao Alimall to Escolta to Rustan's Makati. Imelda Marcos christened these air-conditioned buses, with brightly painted hearts, as the 'Love Bus.' For a P2.50 flat rate, it was a safe, comfortable way to get around Metro Manila. Today, the Ayala-UP Town Center P2P fare costs P100 or P80 for seniors and PWD.
