Call me cynical but I wonder what Grab drivers would have to gain by doing that.

The regular taxi guys are the ones with the track record for violence while the Grab guys are starting out and have no official protection as of yet

Revenge attack? 

Heaven knows, I recently booked a Grab car and it was a regular taxi when it turned up!

And everywhere else in Asia Grab doesn’t have problems, but of coarse here.

You never see shopkeepers on a road selling the same stuff/services attacking each other. Why is this?  Curious.

 

 

Eh?

 

It was in the news just a few days ago about a food vendor attacking another one with a machete.

 

Before that it was a family of market sellers attacking one that moved in.
