The Association organized a workshop in Surrey 20th September 2011. The workshop was quite educational and a success. The workshop was attended by the member taxi delegates from the Passenger Transportation Branch, National Safety Code and The Commercial Vehicle Safety Enforcement (CVSE). The taxi industry and the enforcement officials have the same common goal to ensure safety of the taxis, drivers, and the general public and thus work together as partners to achieve that goal is important.
The BC Tourism (TIABC) industry conference was held in Victoria from 24-26 October 2011. Mohan Kang was the Association delegate. The convention was educational and beneficial.
The taxi industry must keep in mind the option of Central Dispatch in the future to stay viable beside all the money the companies pay to buy business. The only thing we should be doing is to provide service and for that service we should be getting paid and appreciated by the establishments which are taking advantage of our feelings of insecurity and non-cooperation with each other.
