A motorcycle driver’s group is demanding for more transparency from the Department of Transportation regarding the distribution of the government’s fuel subsidies.
“We are asking the [DOTr] to meet with riders in order to clarify its plan to distribute fuel subsidies. Riders shoulder the weekly gasoline price increases and thus deserve ayuda ,” Kagulong Women’s Collective Spokesman Yang Umali said. “The DOTr does not know if the registered motorcycle owner is using his or her vehicle for platform work. Not even the Department of Labor and Employment is aware of this due to the informal nature of the freelancer or independent contractor relationship,” Umali said.
Last week, President Rodrigo R. Duterte finally approved the distribution of the P2.5-billion fuel subsidy program for public utility vehicle drivers, who are affected by the recent spike in fuel prices.
