If I know rider wouldn’t show up at PUP.
Why do I still waste time to go PUP, and wait for another 5 mins? Will you wait?
I was half hoping grab team will look into the case as I had reported. Apparently they didn’t 😔

Dear All,

After 12th July 2019, GRAB will be officially regulated (end of moratorium). Meaning all drivers must get PSV license, PUSPAKOM inspection, additiona e-hailing rider to insurance coverage, different type of road tax with AH in front, SOCSO contribution mandatory.

I see it as a huge huge pain in the arse. The govt should just let the industry be and not cave in to the demand of taxi drivers who are 90% behave like gangster with their shitty maintained cars.

Anyhow, these regulations will make it SOOO Cumbersome for so many of us. It's already ending of March 2019 and nothing can be done yet, so I expect there will be a bottleneck as drivers rush to get legalised before 12th July 2019.

Also, the additional costs are very significant. GRAB MUST increase their fares and make it worth our time. No more bilis RM5 fare. Minimum fare should be RM8. Also maximum commission set by govt is 20%. I am confident that GRAB will have to increase their fare to cover this shortfall as no more 25% commission and now since they are legalised, surely they have to pay income tax. So their profit will be affected.

My hope is that they stop charging such low prices and at least be on par with taxi fare. Level playing field what.

With this move to regulate, I reckon 70% of part-timers will quit and only the full-timers will have no choice but to go on. THis will cause a sharp drop in drivers. GRAB may even just pull out of Malaysian market with all these kinda regulations..if this happens I wont be surprised.

My hope is that with all the trouble we have to go through to get legalised, they bloody better increase the fare significantly, like 50% increment. I've seen Uber fare in Hong Kong and all..it's expensive, even more expensive than taxis.

Malaysians are very forgiving. Increase price, they will complain few weeks, later they will still use GRAB. GRAB should just increase the price. Worst case same price as taxi, ppl will still take GRAB, coz better car and driver.

Peace and Love. Lets hope our rice bowl not affected.

u r rider or driver?

High demand surge already cap at 2 times which is stipulated by MOT/APAD. If follow off peak price then x2, that is the ceiling price.

The cap is a stupid move, once government interfere the supply demand mechanism, it will disrupt the whole mechanism, imagine on a rainy friday night, driver will mostly rest a while and let the traffic ease then only start. The ceiling price is more or less the same like taxi fare, some more need to minus 20% commission to grab.

Cancellation fee is a stupid move? u try it on your own as driver and u will see a vast difference between Uber and Grab passenger behaviour. All the while Grab is paying all those cancellation on behalf of passenger, u think they want to continue subsidize something which not in their favour?

You are right about one thing. A lot of stupid Malaysian like you talks like they know shit, but actually they're the dumb people they tend to ignore.

If you are here to make an observation 'look under the hood' so to speak, you should do it quietly because once you open your mouth you're just another dumb Malaysian.

Now sit back and watch all these drivers tear you a new one for the above quoted sentence

Hello!! this is no kopitiam

Because like you I'm also neither rider nor driver but I have somewhat vested interes in grab as a whole so I follow this topic for quite some time. It's your obnoxious way that's touched a nerve. Like the previous guy said, this is not kopitiam

Hi sifus,

I'm newbie. My third week been a grabber.

Today, I was in this condo and 1 lady book for a multiple stop, straight away I get it and press i'm arrived within second. The thing is, the lady change her mind seconds after book. But instead of just cancelled it, she come down to lobby and order me to just drove away and press drop off where ever i want, so i will get the full fare instead of rm3 cancellation fee. I press drop off both at the same time.

Is it ok? Crap didnt overlook this thing?

Grab implement cancellation fee and create a big hoo-haa, when Uber has this policy not many people make noise about it also

He is officially the number one public enemy of e-hailing industry

Or taxi industry

Damned if you do,damned if you don't.Probably he rather stay as opposition.Just kutuk government only,no need do anything else

That's what every full timers dream of, but we don't know how long the paradise will last. I'm sure grab will not let it happen for long, if seriously lack of drivers, they will do whatever they can to help/support drivers into fulfilling regulations.

Haha like me

Really where got other profession let you break 10am-5pm on the weekday

For me, non peak hour also sapu. Haha. But if to choose, 11am-4pm or 8pm-12am better?

hi guys. an newbie wanna start to drive grab for some extra income.

actually i have a full time job , and ''accidentally'' brought a new saga last month, ended up feel like go for part time grab to pay off the car loan faster and some extra income.

just now when i trying to sign up with grab i encounter with this "rental agreement" which marked with the * symbol its mandatory document need to submit.

so what is this "rental agreement"? i not going to rental a car just for grab lol.
and what is the rules and regulations that going to imply on this coming july to the e-halling system?

so far i know is

*  3years and older car need to send for puspakom inspection

* PSV licence

* passenger insurance (any idea how much it would be?)

i plan to do grab on night 8pm ~ 12am or 1am (weekdays) , full day 10am ~ 10pm for (weekend). and aim to earn rm1k is that possible?

Any plausible explanation why no boost for 3km pickup which i duly rejected while I accepted the next ride within 1km for Rm5.50 boost along the same route within the same minute?   :confused:

This one i also don't know, u working for grab kah? How come u not even driver also know so details one.

this is no kopitiam....zzzzzzz

U look at Singapore scenario, did the full timers getting better after the regulation?

Until now i didn't know crap got such canggih AI

you are neither crapcar driver or riders, yet u can talk like veteran drivers....so become your comments became kopitiam lor!
.....& kopitiam comments no need to be so long winded 1. it drain our brain energy away....short2 1 is good for u
