THE Cebu City Government pledged to waive the business permit fee for 2025 and grant an amnesty on unpaid penalties to about 2,000 Cebu City-based food delivery app riders.Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia also pledged to provide accident insurance to about 6,000 delivery and motorcycle taxi riders in Cebu City out of his personal funds.Over 250 delivery riders from online grocery and food delivery services apps Grab and Foodpanda, reached out to Garcia on Tuesday, Nov.
“I’m happy to provide immediate relief for the delivery riders while their legal victory is on appeal,” Garcia said. “These are hardworking individuals trying to make an honest living on their motorcycles, most of whom are the sole breadwinners in their families. These are small tokens of appreciation.”“I am not going to ask for the City to pay for this. I will pay for it from my own pocket,” Garcia said.
