Public transport groups demand a price rollback of fuel prices to pre-crisis levels and for the government to subsidize the rest. In a press conference at the Quezon Memorial Circle on April 8, 2026, the United Transport Alliance Nationwide (UTAN) said the demand of P55 per liter of diesel and P58 for gasoline was non-negotiable and that it would push for a fare increase as a second option although no amount was set.
