A LOCAL transport group will not join its parent organization’s three-day nationwide transport strike starting on Monday, April 29, 2024, one day before the final consolidation deadline for traditional jeepneys , with its leader saying it would be futile to do so as several drivers have already joined cooperatives or corporations.
Piston deputy secretary-general Ruben Baylon said last Saturday that they must protest to protect their livelihood. The National Government’s PUVMP mandates traditional jeepney units to either form or join a cooperative or corporation to continue operating. This requires them to give up their individual franchises. The minimum number of cooperative members is 10.
