The Philippines. Jeepneys are the standard form of transport throughout the Philippines. They were originally made from US military jeeps left over from World War II and are well known for their flamboyant decoration and crowded seating. They have also become a symbol of Philippine culture. The Metro Manila fixed fare has increased from 5 pesos to pesos (currently about 10 to fifteen cents American.) They are now on their third generation of jeepneys. Electric jeepneys are being test-run in Makati.
