First of all, the producer and the team were very interested in the matatu driver's story and in the tour. Maybe for the pressure, the driver felt intimidated by cameras and he lost his appetite. Despite of the whisperings of matatu touts; in general, the treatment was good.
2. Do Barranquilleros have the same negative opinion of mototaxistas as the Kenyans have of matatu drivers?
Some barranquilleros think similarly to kenyans, there's a belief that mototaxistas are poor and non-educated people. This are just stereotypes, because the reality is not the same described. Some of the mototaxistas have received education and also they have that job like a way to survive, a way to earn some money to them and to their families. Barranquilleros and Kenyans must break this stereotypes because mototaxistas and matatu drivers are people that deserves the same opportunities than the other people and furthermore they are hard workers and worthy of respect.
