CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – A group of tricycle drivers and operators in this city has shunned digital payments because it is not applicable to their public utility vehicle.
Paul Cempron, chairman of the Federation of Motorela Drivers and Operators in Cagayan de Oro, said the enactment of proposed Ordinance No. 2023-283, or the Paleng-QR Plus PH program of Cagayan de Oro City, will result into hardship as many tricycle drivers don’t have smart phones and don’t know how to operate mobile wallet apps.“It would be a hassle to operate that and will result in additional time for us just to cash in ,” Cempron said on Wednesday, September 13.
Cempron appreciated the plan and the purpose of the government and the local government unit but he said the government can implement it in sectors where digital payment is applicable. Councilor George Goking, chairman of the trade and commerce committee, sought for comment about Esparcia’s statement, explained that the proposed ordinance is"not obligatory" and acknowledged the capacity of the covered traders.
