“These forgotten people only need one thing: for the government to allow them to temporarily operate legally just like Move It, Angkas and Joyride. Or for Congress to fast-track the passage of the bill legitimizing the motorcycle taxi business,” Move It chairman Francis Juan said in a statement.

The Technical Working Group of the Department of Transportation under the Duterte administration initially limited to Angkas and then added two more players later the number of motorcycle taxi companies under the pilot program to study the business although there were other interested parties.Move It said Angkas, benefiting from a head start, borrowed most of its slots as the former was too small to use up its allocation.

Juan said the pilot had been running for three years now, and Angkas and Joyride benefited from a protected business in the absence of the MC taxi law.
