Grab Philippines President Brian Cu said Monday that the driver accounts to be deactivated belong to those who have not submitted proof that they acquired provisional authority from the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB). ADVERTISEMENTIn December, the LTFRB opened 20,000 slots for drivers and those who applied were given until June 7 to complete their application documents. “At the end of the day, many Filipinos will suffer from this painful step – both the drivers and the passengers. Currently, Grab Philippines has 45,000 active drivers on its platform.
