In Malaysia = NO!, because If u were to put the sticker to public, it wont guarantee the safety of your car, as Yellow/Red Cab will cari pasal..one of my friends car got broke in and been vandalize, after lodging police report and so on, capture on cctv yellow cab driver done it.

So as a Uber its best to disguise your car and just work as normal for now. Till the SPAD issue solved.

Plans for Uber to legalise its services in Malaysia have been quashed by the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD), theSun understands. This report comes days after Chan Park, strategic planning head and general manager of Uber Technologies South East Asia (SEA), said that matters were “under discussion” to legalise its services. However, he failed to elaborate on the progress.

According to SPAD chairman, Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar, the market “does not need a new player” – more so in locations such as the Klang Valley, Johor Baru and Penang. “They [Uber] are trying to replace the legitimate taxis. Uber is a matchmaker and it utilises all kinds of cars including private vehicles. Uber is offering the kind of services that we cannot legalise,” he said.

Syed Hamid went on to state that while he does not oppose the existence of an app that offers transport services, said app must facilitate “vehicles with a valid permit and the driver has a valid licence.” SPAD enforcement head, Datuk Paduka Che Hasni Che Ahmad, explained Uber’s matchmaking services by stating that the firm hires a local source to deal with car rental and/or leasing companies to cater to the bookings.

The drivers themselves are provided by said local firm. “Uber does not deal directly with car rental companies because it acts as a middleman,” he clarified. Additionally, Syed Hamid also stated that Uber’s cashless payment system is hindering the local economy.
