Senator Grace Poe on Tuesday lauded Angkas, under the helm of its CEO George Royeca for its leadership in providing proper training to its riders for the safety of its passengers.
“I commend Angkas for doing this because the company was the one who spearheaded the professionalization of the habal-habal,” Poe said during the hearing of the Senate Committee on Public Services.
Motorcycle driving program
Angkas was the first Transportation Network Company to develop its own basic motorcycle driving program to provide formal training to its riders, thus, guaranteeing the safety of their passengers.
Another lawmaker, Senate Committee on Public Services chairperson Sen. Raffy Tulfo also commended Angkas for its efforts to ensure that all of its riders adhere to government policies.
Country’s safest
Royeca disclosed during the hearing that Angkas remains the country’s safest motorcycle taxi with a safety record of 99.997 percent.
He informed the Senate committee that Angkas has tapped a Triple-A third-party auditor to monitor and audit the company’s safety record.
“This is in our second year of implementation already. We get a Triple-A third-party auditor to audit our safety record,” Royeca explained.
