Looking at the comments, many call him scammer with bad business ethics.

Second top most comment is that he is born with silver spoon, nothing special.

What do you guys think?

I think many here did not know listing in US means going to or have business in US. Similar transportation/ delivery concept type of business bersepah in USA. Having another new one will not attract any investors at all. Thats why price not nice.

I think he is an amazing guy who provided millions of job opportunities to people in ASEAN.

Yes his background helps but that's not the point. Grab is highly successful and he is a great businessman.

Alot of people talking about toxic culture and stuff, but people need to understand that it's a middle management problem, because most things break in the middle.

And by saying that he was born a silver spoon, that's the whole point isn't it? He couldn't have just relax and take over the tan Chong empire but he decided to built something from the ground up. You need to give him some respect.

And why r people so salty? The grab app is one of the useful and most frequently used app. Better than the likes of TikTok, Instagram, etc.

The difference between has daddy kasi money and don't have backup need to get loan or start small...He got advantage and use it fully and wisely to create the company...and he showed that he is competent...

The example for us to see its really an individual that can make the difference even though got daddy kasi is The Ambani Brothers.. One become really successful while the other f*ckup... Both receive almost same amount of inheritance

He is from rich family, but he never settle down and press ahead with new business when he could choose to chill and stay with family biz. Compared to those Tan and Yeoh families kids, none step out of comfort zone and did and succeed as much as he does.

Yes, Grab treats vendors and riders unfairly some may say. But end of the day, they exist becuz of demand. We are still paying for it and using Grab while we have other options like FoodPanda, ShopeeFood, Fat boy's rubbish Airasia food etc.

Just my 2 cents.

I think he built something very unique and definitely solved a big transportation problem.
However he lacks the prowess and ability to express the dreams to his investor, like Elon Musk.
His endeavour into the stock exchange was made seemingly out of desperation without much thought into the public perception.

My 2 cents,
The rich have the privilege to travel and explore beyond Msia, and brought in wealth of experience and knowledge. That being said, i must applaud them for willing to try something new, something unproven and definitely something risky as it involves extravagant CAPEX with unknown ROE.

It takes someone with wisdom, experience and knowledge to put a vision into reality.

The poor don't have this, and the middle income can only dream and risk it at certain level until they meet inevitable problem such as cashflow, connections, and reactive laws and regulation that restricts creativity.





Long story short, he make use of what he have and made it to the top. Same cannot be said for other rich kids whom play it safe.

This and it came from CoolStoryWriter. Lol

He basically kick started the gig economy with Grab car, then when lockdown came, he pivot to Grabfood, Grabmart etc to provide a living to those who caught by the pandemic and also connecting businesses with more business. You can call him an opportunist but so many job opportunities were created not only in Malaysia but all around SEA. I am not a fan of Grab because I think one shouldn't be lazy to cook or to go out and buy but it does has its one target market.

Credit has to be given to him for what he has done, and born rich has shouldn't be the equation here. So many other 36542654125347 ppl are born rich as well but do you see them doing something or just waiting to take over the father's business and become CEO.

Still wonder what did he scam on. laugh.gif

I think he built something very unique and definitely solved a big transportation problem.
However he lacks the prowess and ability to express the dreams to his investor, like Elon Musk.
His endeavour into the stock exchange was made seemingly out of desperation without much thought into the public perception.

If by year 2023 Grab did not listed on any stock exchange, Grab has to pay compensation about $2bil to Uber. So it is a strategic move for Grab to rush for SPAC.

He is from rich family, but he never settle down and press ahead with new business when he could choose to chill and stay with family biz. Compared to those Tan and Yeoh families kids, none step out of comfort zone and did and succeed as much as he does.

Yes, Grab treats vendors and riders unfairly some may say. But end of the day, they exist becuz of demand. We are still paying for it and using Grab while we have other options like FoodPanda, ShopeeFood, Fat boy's rubbish Airasia food etc.

Just my 2 cents.

the other thing they showed was proof of concept.

Look at Uber, its market cap now is 70bil while grab is 12bil +

Room for growth perhaps? I might be interested at the current level. Buy and hold for centuries lol

This and it came from CoolStoryWriter. Lol

He basically kick started the gig economy with Grab car, then when lockdown came, he pivot to Grabfood, Grabmart etc to provide a living to those who caught by the pandemic and also connecting businesses with more business. You can call him an opportunist but so many job opportunities were created not only in Malaysia but all around SEA. I am not a fan of Grab because I think one shouldn't be lazy to cook or to go out and buy but it does has its one target market.

Credit has to be given to him for what he has done, and born rich has shouldn't be the equation here. So many other 36542654125347 ppl are born rich as well but do you see them doing something or just waiting to take over the father's business and become CEO.

Still wonder what did he scam on. laugh.gif

What talking you. He founded My Teksi alongside Hooi Ling. He didn’t buy Grab or any business. It’s HIS. He fundraised to even to start My Teksi and even got a grant from Harvard if I’m not wrong. Then he renamed to Grab because they are serving more than hooking taxi drivers with an app as they are also doing their own e-hailing.

Get your facts right. You need a kick.
