Hello! I would like to request information on:
1) The number of transportation service providers (e.g. Grab, etc.) per region;
2) The number of transportation service consumers per region;
3) Statistics on profit gain per month as a service provider; and
4) The number of public transportation users per month.
Would like to receive original/raw data on this if possible. Thanks!

Thank you for your response. For clarity with items 2 and 3, I would like to receive original data on these, if possible (a raw/uncleaned Excel data file would work). I want to know: a) how many monthly consumers do transportation services such as Grab and Angkas have per region on a monthly basis; b) The profit gained by these providers per month.
If data is unavailable, I would like to know if there are any related unpublished data sets that could help (e.g. total number of people getting domestic and international flights per region in the past twelve months, the total number of public/train transportation users in the past twelve months, etc.)
Thank you in advance!

Dear Mx. Kriscia Mallari,
I am Carlo Castillo, a BS Development Communication student enrolled in UPLB. One of the courses I am enrolled in is DEVC 127 (Data Journalism) which is concerned with analyzing and filtering big data.
In line with the course requirements, our task was to request a dataset from agencies that are currently not available on their online portal.
Rest assured that the data given will be used only for academic purposes related to DEVC 127 and that the agency will retain ownership of the materials.
Thank you very much and I hope you keep safe!
Respectfully,
