March 9, 2004.  This is a picture of some of the next group of people preparing to leave the Sports Complex Tuesday evening and going to the ocean to be baptized.  This type of bus is a major mode of transportation in General Santos City.  The other two major modes of transportation are the motorcycle (often 3 or 4 people ride one motorcycle... sometimes more) and a three-wheeled motorcycle with seating available for several passengers.  Although it looks like a Mercedes emblem on the front of this bus, it is not.  These buses are made in the Philippines.
