TRISIKADS. A Cebuano businessman who used to have a “fleet” (his word) of trisikads asked a Citom traffic enforcer: “Nganong didto sa Metro Manila gitugtan man ang mga trisikad pag-operate sa pipila ka mayor nga kalye?” The traffic enforcer reportedly replied: “Sa Manila man to, Cebu man ni.”
LIVELIHOOD. The Cebuano businessman said driving a trisikad is a “regular means of livelihood” for many many people in Metro Manila including some breadwinners of some families. “Dinhi sa ato dakpon ang nag-drive og trisikad ug iimpound ang ilang units ug dili na nila malukat kay wa’y kuwartang ilukat,” according to him. “Hatagan ta unta og higayon nga mabuhi ang trisikad drivers.”
