Two Brazil cities revoke transit fare hike

Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo agree to suspend increase in public transport fares, but protesters say they "want more".

Brazilian officials in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro have announced the reversal of the 10-cent increase in public transit fares, which sparked widespread protests across the nation.

Rio Mayor Eduardo Paes, Sao Paulo Mayor Fernando Haddad and Sao Paulo state governor Geraldo Alckmin said on Wednesday that the fare increase is now reversed.

The protests across the South American country which continued for a third day have evolved into communal outcries that have moved well beyond the original demand that public transportation fares be lowered. Protests are continuing in Rio's sister city Niteroi and in northeastern Brazil.

Al Jazeera's Gabriel Elizondo, reporting from Sao Paulo, said that so far there were little reaction on the streets but social media, which fuelled the movement, is abuzz with reaction. 

"A lot of the movement participants say [on social media] that its a good start, but not quite enough. They want free public transport, especially in Sao Paulo," he said. 

Elizondo added that many protesters had told him that the protests go beyond the transit issue and calls for better public services in the country.
