    how come biglang nagkaganito? if that is their philosophy, then that's the same double-edge sword na pwede nila gawin sa sariling nilang operators as well as their riders. anyone who stands in their way babanatan nila, This is so damn RECKLESS! bakit inallow sa society natin ang ganito?
    yes it was supposed to be like that -- people who ALREADY own a car can give rides to people in their spare time

    it morphed into the taxi business

    --

    itong uber pinas wala sya paki kung isang fleet ang ipasok mo sa kanila (mas gusto pa nga nila yan)

    wala sila paki kung hinuhulugan mo mga kotse mo

    di nila problema yan

    ang pinaka goal ng uber pinas is to activate as many cars as they possibly can

    more active cars on the road = more $$$

    di sasabihin ng uber kumuha ka muna ng franchise

    kung ginawa nila yun, iilan lang ma-activate na kotse

    wala rules rules kay uber

    Uber operates the same way as Google / Youtube ata. yes they earn money on the rides, pero ang talagang pinag-kakakitaan ata nila eh advertisements. with a good subscriber base, dami mag-aadvertise o makikipartner sa kanila. Yun mga free credits alone is suspect.

    Yun ang hinde alam ng LTFRB haha, LTRFB thought they are cripling Uber as a transport company were in fact, Uber is bigger than that. the same way as Google is operating Android. kala ng mga tao Android is like Windows or Apple, pero ang hinde nila alam Android is just a tool for Google's advertising empire. that's why I never bought any android phone from the start. a free app is a dangerous data mining tool for the developer. there's no such thing as a free lunch.

    with the Uber ecosystem, both Uber operator / driver and Riders are subscribers just like us getting a free account of FB or Hotmail or Yahoo mail. Yan ang hinde na-realize ng mga Uber operators who bought those cars on installment. To Uber, they're just one of the subscribers / members / account holders. ang laki ng gastos nila isang kotse just to become a member of the Uber social media network lol

    whatever dude

    uber is no comparison to google and facebook

    uber is burning cash

    uber survives on investor money

    google and facebook are profitable

    uber isn't gonna exist in its current form a few years from now

    grab put a ceiling daw sa surge pricing nila up to 1.5x or 1.7x lang kahit na 2x dapat ang allowed sa kanila ng LTFRB. Jusy to the riders dahil siguradong magkakaroon ng shoet ng supply

    Yung nasakyan kong uber minsan nakwento niya taga bulacan siya at di siya araw-araw bumabiyahe.

    Kung kelan lang niya feel "ipasada" Mitsu Adventure niya doon lang siya "mamamasada" at nagagwi sa metro manila.

    Kasi may full time computer repair business naman talaga siya.

    Sideline lang niya tong uber.

    Eh yung ibang Pinoy, umabuso.

    Nakita nila loophole sa ride-sharing scheme ng uber.

    Giawang full-time business, bumili pa nang fleet of vehicles just for uber/grab.

    Naghire pa ng full-time driver to drive the vehicles, instead of driving it themselves.

    Kasalanan ba ng uber ngayon kung ang mga pinoy likhang mapang abuso pag may oportunidad kumita ng salapi?

    Ang Pinoy kasi madiskarte, minsan kahit maliit na butas hahanapin at pipilitin lumusot.

    Just my 2 cents.

    since the time uber / grab operates i only got to ride once from tiendisitas to dltb cubao..the driver thought i was dropping off dltb edsa munoz terminal as previously instructed by my daughter..in short there was some minor confusion and catched up my trip schedule..but it only confirmed my lingering doubts this app based ride sharing thing is not really as safe or efficient as some people would argue..

    so with the suspension in effect how would the enforcers know if the car is uber affiliated or not..me special markings ba sila or sensor activated gadget implanted inside the car..? dont have any idea..

    i think you are underestimating Uber. Uber already Uber boat taxis in Venice, Uber helicopters as well as Uber private jet. they are data mining, particularly the transport logisitcs of every type of transportstion of every country na andun sila. one hing Uber has roght now is they have the data siguro of eveey urbsn mapping system of Singspore, US, Japan, Australia, Philippines. that data alone they can sell it to investors wanting to invest in a country. if Uber Philippines that it averages 500, 000 trips a month, that's consumer data.
