Domingo González, who thanked the sector for its collaboration, stated that "among the changes and improvements that have been introduced in the Municipal Ordinance of the taxi sector in the municipality of Ingenio, we have proposed a change of image in the vehicles that would identify the taxi with the municipality since it moves through the airport and other municipalities and we wanted to take advantage of that opportunity to introduce a new model, to support the sector and serve as a boost to the municipal economy.”

 

For their part, the presidents of the Association of Autotaxi and Radio Gestión Entrepreneurs, Félix Méndez and Domingo Viera, assured that this change of image “is a good initiative on the part of the City Council to promote the municipality through some of its places and most representative symbols and that the sector has received favorably" and added that "it is a change of image appropriate to the new times and colleagues from other municipalities have loved the idea and have let us know."
