(4-6)
       What color are the taxis in your country? Every country
has different colors. For example, Taiwan has yellow taxis, but
England has black ones. However, have you ever seen a pink
taxi? People call the pink taxis Paxi and it is from the words
pink and taxi. Only women can use the pink taxis.
       In Pakistan, a study shows that 55% of the women don't
feel safe when taking a bus or a taxi. It is dangerous for women
to take a bus by themselves because there may be sexual
harassment. Besides, women can't take a taxi driven by a man
without her father or husband. It's not convenient, is it? Here
come the new taxis. The drivers in the pink taxis wear a pink
scarf and a black coat as their uniforms. Most of them are
housewives, young women and students. There are four ways to
take the pink taxis, that is, to stop one on the road, use the phone
app, call the center or use the text message. Hopefully, Paxi
does bring a good future for women.
