Hong Kong businessman complains about faulty taxi lighted signs

"VACANT" BUT OCCUPIED. For the nth time, The Ear have received complaints about taxis that continue to have the "Vacant" sign lit even when the cab is already occupied. An Ear insider said a businessman from Hong Kong complained to him after he got frustrated waving at "vacant" taxis, only to find out that they were already occupied. "These taxis should change their lighted sign to "occupied" once a passenger gets on board. By leaving the sign as "vacant" when it's already occupied makes other passengers frustrated. This reflects poorly on your country. The government agency involved should monitor these more carefully for more efficient taxi service," said the Hong Kong businessman. The Ear insider who listened to the complaints could only nod in agreement and offered a sincere apology in behalf of his country.

EMBARRASSED PINOY. The same Ear insider who got an earful from the Hong Kong businessman said, he was so embarrassed by this and at the same time angry at the LTFRB and other government agencies concerned. "Puwerte gyud nakong uwawa. Akoy na uwaw sa akong gobyerno. Maayo lang unta kung kita-kita ra ang ga-antos sa kapalpak sa atong sistema. Pero, grabe ang atong uwaw kung mga foreigners na ang mo-complain."
