Stocklots Saipan manager Ivan Lee, in a telephone interview, admitted they are operating a taxi business.
He said they transport passengers to and from hotels and the airport. “We want to help the government promote the tourism industry,” he said.
Lee said they have a business license but because the Department of Commerce has not approved their permit, “we have stopped our services.”
