Members of Manibela transport group wave their protest banners and placards during their strike and demonstration at the foot of Mendiola Bridge in Manila on October 16, 2023.MANILA, Philippines — Progressive transport group PISTON came to the aid of their fellow jeepney drivers and operators facing threats from the state due to a two-day strike against PUV phaseout and for their allegations of corruption within the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board .
"Instead of listening and addressing the calls of the drivers and operators on why our complaints lead to a strike, it seems that the government is really intent on attacking the livelihood and rights of the workers," continued Floranda. The group argued that while PUV drivers and operators have an obligatiuon to provide services to passengers, the ILO said those who provide services, including public transport workers, should enjoy the right to strike and should not be subject to interference or repression by the authorities.MR.DIY Holi-DIY Spend & Win promo is your gateway to luxury!The country is expected to experience cooler months ahead as state weather bureau PAGASA announced the start of the 'Amihan'...
