As the country still is in limbo whether the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) will be extended our not, the local arm of Suzuki Philippines (SPH) decided to answer to the call by addressing the plight of frontliners in terms of transportation. 

SPH participated on the Free Bus Ride for Medical Workers Program of the Department of Transportation (DOTr), lending some 10 All-New Carry UV units to transport frontliners from different location points, helping ease the burden of their day-to-day commute. 

Out of 10, nine are Carry Utility Vans (UV) to be utilized for frontline health workers, and a sole Super Carry CV for logistics and delivery use. 

These units will be dispatched in eight routes that will include: SM City San Jose Del Monte to Centris Station (EDSA, Quezon Avenue), SM City Masinag to The Medical City, Ortigas, Ortigas Hospital and Healthcare Center to Rizal Medical Center, Centris Station (EDSA, Quezon Avenue) to Cubao-Arenta Center MRT 3 Station, SM City Taytay to De Los Santos Medical Center and St. Luke’s Medical Center along E. Rodriguez Avenue, SM City San Mateo to Robinsons Galleria and lastly, SM City San Jose Del Monte to SM Fairview and Commonwealth Avenue.

“During these challenging times, we in Suzuki Philippines Inc. understand the impact that we can make as part of the automobile industry. We are more than willing to provide assistance to our frontline health workers for their unwavering commitment to continue serving the Filipino people especially at the current time. We are grateful for their solid dedication and we thank the DOTr as well for opening up a window for us to be of help,” SPH President Akira Utsumi said. 

SPH specifically selected the All-New Carry as the perfect reliable workhorse for these times that look for truly efficient and agile solutions. 

The local arm assured that they will continue to strive and take part in the community "as we are currently experiencing a major speed bump worldwide."

"As Team Suzuki, their participation goes beyond not just by producing reliable products but being able to assist in continuing the way of life of our people," it added.
