The classic jeepney, a staple of Filipino culture, is being phased out due to a modernization program from the Filipino government.
The program essentially aims to phase out jeepneys by 2020.
The vehicles that are more than 15 years old are to be replaced with newer models of vehicles that will supposedly be more cost-efficient and environmentally friendly. The idea, however, has been labelled by transport groups and several Filipinos as being "anti-poor."
