LTFRB to release standardized guidelines for special passenger discounts on PHL ride-hailing platforms

Quick Summary:

IN a hearing conducted by the Committee on Public Services, chaired by Senator Raffy Tulfo, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadiz III announced that a memorandum circular would be issued by the end of January to standardize the implementation of discounts for students, persons with disabilities (PWD), and senior citizens across ride-hailing platforms currently operating in the Philippines.

We also extend our thanks to TNCs like Grab, Angkas, and Joyride for respecting and implementing these discounts.

By standardizing the implementation, we ensure that the public receives the discounts mandated by law.
