Here are some of the public utility vehicles that are offering free rides for all women.

The Philippine Coast Guard announced on February 29 that their organization will be offering free bus rides to women on select dates.
The free-of-charge bus rides will be offered on March 13 and March 30, from 6 AM to 5 PM. The first free ride was offered on March 6 and female passengers were able to indulge in this discount perk. Women can enjoy free bus rides if they travel from Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) up to Cubao, Quezon City, and vice versa.
