On July 21 remaining 12 months, the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) issued Memorandum Circular 2016-008 directing its technical division and regional places of work no longer to accept any packages for transportation community automobile offerings (TNVS), mainly the ones of Uber, GrabCar, and Uhop, because of the growing extent of TNVS programs.

“This suspension creates a kind of pause which slows down our united states toward development,” Laurence Cua, wellknown supervisor of Uber Philippines, stated at a media briefing in Taguig City.

“Almost a 12 months in the past, in July 2016, there was a surprising suspension of applications for TNVS. When this happened, 3 large influences passed off to experience sharing,” he stated.

Cua said the suspension hindered riders from getting access to safe, dependable, and convenient rides; prevented hundreds of Filipinos from a feasible earnings possibility; and hindered the continuing improvement of the traffic congestion and delivery system in the metro.
