THE labor department will give away free bikes nationwide to those who wish to work as food couriers, its chief said Thursday.
The agency will launch the program on Monday in Metro Manila, beginning with Pasig, said Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello.
“Magbibigay nga pala kami ng bisikleta sa buong bansa. Itong bisikleta na ibibigay namin sa magnenegosyo. ‘Yung magde-deliver. Kausap namin ‘yung mga restaurant na within a radius of 1 to 1 and a half kilometers dun na lang sa binigyan namin ng bisikleta ‘yung delivery nila,” he told ABS-CBN’s Teleradyo.
Those who wish to acquire free bikes may inquire at DOLE offices, Bello said.(ABS-CBN News)
