Baguio Plaza - Loakan public utility jeepney (PUJ) route

A field recording of a Baguio Plaza-Loakan Public Utility Jeepney (PUJ) trip from the Loakan terminal to its terminal in T. Claudio Street, Baguio City. The field recording captured the human and non-human actors that define the soundscape of a Loakan jeepney during its 8-10 kilometre trip.  Jeepney is a socio-cultural artifact in Philippine public transportation and a caricature of the everyday life in urban spaces. In recent years, old-fashioned jeepneys together with their operators and drivers are battling phaseout for modernised electric vehicles or e-jeeps/e-buses introduced by the government.  Recorded by Benj Meamo III.
