Gaza Tuk Tuks overtake donkey taxis
Traditional donkey carts threatened by growing demand for innovative motorbike.
Published On 5 Nov 2010
Donkey carts have been a traditional form of transportation in the Gaza Strip for years – due in part to an Israeli embargo that makes petrol hard to find.
But a new innovative motorbike cart dubbed the “Tuk Tuk” is emerging as a more popular way to get around due to its greater speed and comfort.
Al Jazeera’s Nadim Baba reports on how a familiar sight from roads in the Far East is threatening to override the donkey taxi industry in Gaza.
