maayong adlaw ninyo specially ang tanang tga Purok6 Biking1 specially sa akong papa comio og kang mama mena og pempom mga tambay sa tindahan nla Nang sita..kumusta...
I think even if tricycles are gone and replaced by multicabs and taxis the issue would be the same... because the tricycle drivers would most likely become multicab or taxi drivers.
Basin taga jagna ang gabuot anang signs. Hehe. Bitaw, you are correct, the next town should be included in the sign placed in the current tow. So sa Tagbilaran, dapat naay: Jagna 63kms, Dauis 1KM, Baclayon 10kms.
Then sa baclayon, dapat naay Albur nga sign... Bahala ug naa gihapon ang Jagna.
You would notice though naapil na ang Maribojoc sa signs. Sauna gilaktawan gyud nang Maribojoc. Karon naa na.
This is true...Ang uban driver sakto ang singil paingon sa pier or airport..pero ug gikan ka sa pier ngano nga taas mman ila singil..the airport/pier doesn't move an inch away..I suggest that anycomplain to a certain tricycle must be recorded in the city hall incharge of the tricycle operation and make it as ground for non-renewal of their franchise..Discipline is needed to this erring drivers..
By this we can reduce the numbers of tricycle plying the streets in the city...Until such time they can be eradicated giving way to another mode of transportation like multicabs and taxis...

As top tourist destination boasting of the native's hospitality, it is very ironic that our drivers fair very low in terms of service.
ako ni gi-enter sa peace and order because arguments with drivers and experiencing kung unsa ka walanghiya ang mga tricycle drivers sa Tagbilaran City might give birth to a vigilante group killing tricycle drivers.
to prevent, why not conduct values formation seminar for tricycle drivers. and can a group make it regular- -which means a refresher every now and then.
to cite an example ang tricycle number 1450 collected P8 pesos from UB to the terminal for Corella near Marcela. seguro murag gamay ra ni nga isyu paminawn pero kung pasahero mayawaan or simbako nakadala og pusil, segurado jud madisgrasya ang driver.
