In a coffee talk between an engineer, a priest, a businessman, a doctor, and a retired military officer, they discussed everything from business to garbage.
An issue that took a lot of the time surrounded the parking fee at the Bacolod-Silay Airport.
The engineer was very vocal regarding the issue of the airport charging P200 a night for long-term parking. While the retired military officer questioned where the money goes since the national government owns the airport. He also wondered, if there were guards, then parking should only cost around P50 a night.
The priest echoed the same sentiment. He added the president hates these kinds of excessive fees when it is not clear where the money goes.
