The smallest jeepney in the world tagged as “Jeepito” served as a vehicle to give gifts in Baguio City.

Despite the size, Jeepito is fully-functional and it has been patented and registered in Baguio.

Tonton Papa Tan, the owner of the world’s smallest jeepney shared how the idea started.

“The idea for Jeepito came about when I decided to give back to the community, and share my blessings because my company had been blessed and was really earning well. I decided to promote social responsibility by giving to the orphaned and the homeless. I then had an idea that the best way to deliver charity to people was to give them a reason to be excited and smile about. Delivering charity using Jeepito would surely make people happier and more conscious about social responsibility.”

“Umuwi si Jeepito dito sa Baguio to celebrate with us kasi hometown ni Jeepito ang Baguio so we all decided to spend Christmas here and share the blessings that Jeepito had received for the past year,” Galang shared.
