Old and worn down tricycles in Boracay will
only have 6 months whenever the E-trikes will be entering the island.
This is the final agreement between the
E-trike adhoc committee regarding the old units in the island particularly
those which could not be covered by the “Aging Policy,” set by the Local
Government of Malay.
The Policy states that motorcycle units
bought before 2008 will be allowed to operate, however this shall be limited
and will be staying in the island for only 6 months.
According to Malay Transportation Officer
Cezar Oczon, there are more than 100 tricycle units in Boracay which are beyond
the limit of the said “Aging” basis as per the LGU’s record.
These units will then be transported to the
mainland and will be auctioned by the financer or dealer of the unit depending
on its amount for the operators to profit from it.
Meanwhile, as the arrival of the e-trikes
in the island is still on process, it is being expected that by June that implementation
of the said policy will commence.
