rooster59 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Bangkok: Taxi drivers to press PM to include them in "Half Each" project Image: Daily News The head of the Thai taxi drivers' association said yesterday that he plans to petition Thai PM Prayuth Chan-ocha to include his Bangkok members in the "Khon La Khreung" or pay half each project. Withoon Naewphanich said he would be going with 50-60 drivers to meet the PM at Government House on Wednesday. He said that he likes the promotion and if taxis were included - and there are 80,000 registered in Bangkok - it would be good for the travelling public and drivers alike who are all suffering economic hardship due to the pandemic. He said that drivers who presently earn between 1000-1,200 baht a day (before expenses) could earn up to 500 baht more. If they could earn 1,500 to 1,700 baht that would compare reasonably with their pre Covid earnings of 2,000 baht a day. If successful in their petition he hoped that the scheme could be rolled out to other forms of public transport like tour buses, regular buses and minivans.
