Angara pushes 20% discount for students on all modes of transportation 88 SHARES Share it! Angara noted that currently students get 20-percent discount on all modes of transportation based on a memorandum circular issued by the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB). He said savings from the fare discount could be used by students and their families for other expenses, such as tuition and school supplies. The bill also seeks to expand the coverage of the 20-percent discount to include weekends and holidays. Likewise, the bill forbids the availment of double discounts or combination of the student fare discount with other discount programs.
