MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/ANN): Grab Philippines wants to have 15,000 bike riders on the road under its motorcycle-taxi service, a move which will expand the reach of the ride hailing giant in congested urban cities.

Grab Philippines is already preparing to revive GrabBike, a service the government had stopped nearly four years ago since there were no guidelines then. Lawmakers have yet to pass a bill that would legalize motorcycle-taxis, while regulators still needed to conclude a pilot test that would determine if motorbikes were safe for public transport.
