Excellence in business
The Rotary Club seeks to honor individuals who strive for excellence and make significant contributions outside the Rotary organization. To be eligible, nominees must reside or work in Quezon City and be nominated by a reputable Rotary Club in the district. Angkas is one of the three legally licensed motorcycle taxi players taking part in an ongoing taxi pilot study to provide affordable, safe and reliable transportation to thousands of daily commuters.
Royeca had previously conveyed that the long-delayed legalization of motorcycle taxis and easing of transport network vehicle service, or TNVS, measures will significantly upgrade the country’s transportation system.
He then reiterated that having legal measures to govern the bike taxi industry will further help alleviate the daily struggles of Filipino commuters by providing them a safe, dependable, and affordable mode of transportation.
