Light Rail Transit Authority(LRTA)

Good day,

I would like to request for a clarification regarding to the 20% student discount.

Because of the quarantine protocols, there are only limited trips both in LRT 1 and 2.

Students are now in a flexible learning or study at home using their devices.

I would like to know if the student discount is still effective or suspended.

Thank you and keep safe.
