Uber Philippines

uber was originally supposed to enable car owners to earn a little money on the side, renting out their cars when they are not using them. strictly part-time.
if uber is going to use these cars as full-time transport vehicles-for-hire, a.k.a. taxis, then should be accorded all the rights, privileges, rules and regulations, and fees befitting a regular taxicab company.
even the ltfrb seems "confused" at uber's functions... hearing their representatives being interviewed on the radio, they seem to me, to be "unsure" at how uber should be functioning.

bakit kailangan pa sabihin ibang matter yung dilapidated PUVs, bastos cab drivers etc; eh yun nga mga dahilan kung bakit bumenta ang uber.

nakatanggap ako kanina ng email sa uber uber notifying me of their ltfrb suspension. hopefully, both sides find a common ground kasi perwisyo nga naman talaga ito sa regular patrons ng uber

Trying to get grassroots/social media support. Chances are a lot of the people who got that mail are on SC giving the LTFRB a piece of their mind.

Social media is the new mob rule

because it is. ibang matter talaga silang dilapidateds and bastoses. they operate under a different set of rules.
the issue is uber, how it is perceived to be operating now, and how it should be operating, given its original agreed-upon job description that they themselves framed.

isama mo na rin yung boundary ng operators. Yan naman laging dinadahilan ng taxi driver kapag gumagawa ng kalokohan.

like... from suspension to lifetime banning!
i have never seen such predators in the transport business!
how can anyone justify bloating prices during times of "shortage" ? hindi naman tumataas ang overhead nila...
