Popular Post z42 Posted November 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2019 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 12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post realfunster Posted November 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2019 (edited) Sounds a bit odd if true, but if it is, then fair play to the Grab lads for standing up for themselves. It’s usually the taxi/motorbike taxis doing the harassing of the competition, the Grab lads were probably just returning the compliment. In Bangkok, over the last year I have noticed a massive increase in Grab/LalaMove/Line etc riders. I wonder if the balance of numbers, and therefore power, has finally shifted...

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.
