The cap on the number of transport network vehicles (TNVs) must be increased to at least 75,000 instead of the 45,000 decided on by the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) of 45,000 in Metro Manila, according to Brian Cu, head of Grab Philippines. “I think 75,000 would be the number of unique drivers on the road right now,” Cu said in a press briefing held on Tuesday in Quezon City. Cu said his company had suggested to the LTFRB to consider using a master list of active drivers to be prioritized during the applications. “We’re ready to submit active drivers list,” he said. What we need to do is prioritize the most active drivers and proven track record of good service – yung umaasa dito sa kanilang livelihood.
