Description:
One of the areas is Navotas which is located in the central region of the Philippines. It’s a typical slum where 25 million people live in floating bamboo houses because Navotas is a flood-prone region.
When the rainy season begins, the whole village is covered with waste from the landfills. The whole village suffers from epidemics due to poor sanitation.
We designed the ‘Bamboo Recumbent’ for Navotas in the Philippines. It is the next generation of transportation – AMT Transportation.
People can assemble it easily by using the bamboo front & back parts from Michelin. The ‘Bamboo Recumbent’ will achieve its purpose as an effective, efficient form of transportation.
Bamboo is especially easy to find in Navotas so repairs to the ‘Bamboo Recumbent’ will be both easy & convenient. Using bamboo is sustainable and eco-friendly and it is transportation as well as water purification.
Our new mobility-using bamboo, widely cultivated in this region, is eco-friendly & reasonably priced.
It is a dual transportation water purification system. As the Bamboo Recumbent operates, it purifies water constantly.
People who become healthy from drinking the purified water will contribute to economic growth. As a result, the ‘Bamboo Recumbent’ has a new role in mobility by helping city development and improving quality of life for the 25 million people in Navotas.
We are looking forward to the incredible mobility of the ‘Bamboo Recumbent’ which is designed & optimized for Navotas.
