pity on the drivers and users. grab sucks man.
hopefully other player(s) can do better then we don't have to rely on just grab.

other than MyCar, what are the other available e-hailing app?

alright, will try them out next time when needed.
i didnt outright say it is expensive, but rather the increase can be absurb and unjustifiable if there isn't a valid rationale, but guess we have to live with monopoly model.

i get what you mean but you're missing the main point. the point is about the increase, as per the title too, the increase of 30%, is not about the fare alone.

as driver, whether you wanna pick up others is up to the drivers and drivers will have different viewpoint compared to users for sure. so why bother comparing? both have different needs/wants. the drivers will have the choice.

the 1km distance is for my lunch place, typically i will walk whenever i'm alone or with dudes, but when you have ladies in heels, they will likely to take grab.

just FYI, not all LRT station has taxi service, my area here LRT has got no taxi standby to pick you up, i don't mind paying for the distance of about 4km.

in my previous post, the fare is around 7-8 bucks but i'm willing to pay and didnt complain that it is expensive. but the argument point is on the increase for no obvious reason. now can even reach RM12 for the same ride.

like what yhtan mentioned previously, the terms imposed by grab which makes the conditions harsh for driver which have pushed many drivers to quit and hence lowering the supply thereby increasing the fare could be the most suspecting reason.
