The Sad Truth About the Traditional Tricycle in Siquijor

In Siquijor, the traditional tricycle has long been a symbol of the island's unique culture, perfectly adapted to its hilly terrain and winding roads. This humble vehicle, often painted in vibrant colors, has been the lifeblood of local transportation, connecting communities and enabling everyday life in a landscape that demands resilience.

However, the rise of the modern tuk-tuk, influenced by trends in other Southeast Asian countries, is slowly pushing the traditional tricycle into obsolescence. The tuk-tuk, designed with a focus on comfort and speed, is becoming increasingly popular among both locals and tourists. Its smoother ride and faster travel time are hard to resist in a world that values efficiency.

Yet, as the tuk-tuk gains ground, the unique charm and practicality of the traditional tricycle are fading. Unlike the tricycle, which was built to navigate Siquijor's challenging roads, the tuk-tuk is primarily designed for flatter, urban environments. While it may offer a more comfortable ride on straight stretches, its adaptability to Siquijor’s rugged terrain remains questionable.

The shift from tricycles to tuk-tuks represents more than just a change in transportation; it’s a loss of a piece of Siquijor's cultural heritage. As modernity takes hold, the traditional tricycle is a testament to the island's ingenuity—risks being forgotten, replaced by a vehicle that, though more modern, doesn't quite belong in the heart of Siquijor.
