Senators ‘aghast’ over ‘reckless’ LTFRB sanction on Uber

SENATORS decried on Tuesday the order by the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) to suspend the operation of ride-sharing company Uber for 30 days, saying the decision will only worsen the problem.

“I am aghast that this agency that committed before the Senate to resolve the issues has just imposed a cure that will only make the disease much worse,” said Sen. Grace Poe, chairman of the committee on public services.
