Hey guys,
I'm new here so yeah, sorry if I mess anything up. So I'm going to Malaysia soon for studying and I was wondering if it's possible for an international student to buy a car and be a part-time uber/grab driver. I've read that it's possible to buy a car but I'm asking just to be sure. If uber/grab isn't an option then is it possible to rent out the car? That way the expenses will be slightly reduced I hope. Will be waiting for replies, thanks in advance! Cheers!  |

QUOTE(Orzie @ Sep 20 2018, 03:13 PM) Btw Uber is no more in Malaysia, locally the industry leader is Grab. Ooh that's a bummer.You will need to have a Malaysian IC with a valid (full) driving license in order to qualify. Your car also needs to be in a good condition, preferably 6 years or newer. Check if your car is eligible here. I can get an international driving permit but the Malaysian IC is far out of reach! :/ |
