CEBU CITY, Philippines -- Cebu City is urging neighboring cities in Metro Cebu to help the jeepney drivers who have been suffering the past months, especially now that they have not been allowed

This jeepney plying the Liloan-Cebu City route is full of passengers in this photo taken last March 16, 2020 before the enhanced community quarantine period.

City spokesperson Rey Gealon said the city has already provided one sack of rice to jeepney drivers who are residents or members of cooperatives in the city. Drivers will only need to present their certification to operate as a jeepney driver and a proof of their residency in order to be viable for the next rice distribution.Knowing that many drivers that ply in intercity routes are living outside Cebu City, Gealon urged the neighboring cities to provide aide to these jeepney drivers as well.
