Yeah, but they are essentially buying something that is already there. I think very few investors right now wants to help start ups like MyCar to burn money paying incentives to drivers or giving promos to passengers. It will take a long time to build a huge customer base then only the data is meaningful.

They really should do this... Prioritize those who are dropping off at KLIA. This will give less incentives for drivers to go bangau at airport, so there will be more drivers in city areas.

Last time I landed at KLIA before the queue system was put in place. I book at the Arrival gate, terus dapat a driver who was a few hundred meters away only. Now what is it like for passengers? Minimum waiting time they have to wait for driver to drive from Landslide or CF, right? That is assuming that drivers don't cancel on them. If not have to wait longer. The reason why drivers don't want to take short trips at KLIA is because they already waited 3 to 4 hours so they feel less than RM65 is not worth it.

If they prioritize those who are dropping off at KLIA then I think more likely drivers will accept less than RM65 trips.

Sohai Grab...

Why don't they copy Uber's queue system that allows short trips but remain in the queue to get trips back to KL? Haih...

I think Grab purposely hires noob programmers because they are scared that good programmers will run away with their code. The kiasu way. This is what they mean they don't hire people who don't fit in their culture or "talented but arrogant pricks".

But no news wan. Diam2 only.

Valuation only. They are not publicly listed yet.

I also can say my house is 600k, but whether I can find buyer willing to pay that amount is another story. Even if you hire a professionaly evaluator, doesn't mean you can sell your house for the amount that they think your house is worth.

Let's see what they're gonna do when Uber goes public. Probably some really nasty shit.

That day one rider told me she uses Grab often and lately when she book Grab, taxi come and pick her up. Maybe Sean Goh has a plan...

Ooops. I missed out a few points. She said since the announcement about regulations for e-hailing, she start to get more and more taxis picking her up.

Yeah I know she use JustGrab. But I find it interesting that taxis are accepting Grab's fares now. How does it work? They still run meter or follow Grab's fixed rate?

Is this an indication that there are less drivers on the road so the booking goes to taxis?

Hmm.. if taxis willing to accept that fare then maybe Grab is not so worried about losing drivers by imposing AA.

But they use JustGrab. Then taxi come and pick up.

But yeah, problem also. That passenger complained the taxis very impatient and not friendly or rude.

This is what Grab CS replied to me last time. Deswai I say HG will kena trap with far pick ups. You can be one side of the highway and ping come from the other side then GG super far u-turn. 6km also u accept bro? Haiz whatever la, next week no choice liao.



Then I said I don't think 5km pick up is reasonable and this is the reply.

They already plan that you won't be able to earn much incentives also.

Maybe cannot even hit the minimum RM10 requirement for cash out.

iOS or Android? My Android takde pun.

Now only you guys realize how weak "power of c" is?

My PlayStore say dun hap...

Only Chinese PlayStore get update ka? So racist....

That kind of system will break Grab's system. 1 month server down. At least.

Uber's trip based incentives also.. Dynamic one.. Haiz..

1st time give u nice bonus, 2nd time become less, then less some more, then less some more... Haiz...
