Disabled drivers join Indonesia's ride-hailing service boom

Yogyakarta

POLIO did not stop Triyono, 35, from cashing in on Indonesia's booming ride-hailing business last year, when he launched a motorcycle taxi service run exclusively by disabled drivers.

With a crew of 20 drivers and modified three-wheeled motorbikes, he is filling a gap in a public transport service that is not particularly disabled-friendly in the world's fourth-most populous country.
