Signs, Smoking and Motorcycles in Negros Oriental

By July 22, 2014 Travel No Comments

I noticed that the people in this area like using signs 🙂  To me it’s useful and we should do this all over our country 🙂  It makes it easier for everyone and is more friendly for everyone.  

In Florentina Homes plenty signs 🙂 in creative ways!!

In Negros Oriental, almost the whole province is smoke free in public places.  Around 3 more towns have not yet implemented.  This is good news for me and I am sure for many.  And on this you will see even more signs all over the province to remind everyone including visitors 🙂

In restaurants

Public markets

In Malatapay

In the bangka/pump boat

The province is also the motorcycle capital of the Philippines.  Thy have all kinds – tricycles

I like this one 🙂  It looks like a jeep but it’s a tricycle.  I heard they tend to overload these tricycles too.  I am hoping for stricter rules for the passengers

For cargo

Just regular motorcycles for passengers

 I worry though about them overloading ( sometimes a whole family ) the bike and they are hard headed and don’t use helmets

Motorcycles outside Siliman University – they are not allowed to enter if they do no have helmets!  No helmet no entry! Again see how many do not follow.  This is however a blessing for the ” Watch Your Bike”  boys who earn a living parking the bikes.  They are paid from P 1.00 to P 5.00 per bike depending on the mood and generosity of the bike owners 🙂  There are ” Watch Your Bike” boys around the city making a living doing this type of service
