Previously, we reported on the reasons as to why e-hailing fares saw a sudden surge in Malaysia, with one of the reasons being an imbalanced supply-and-demand. Well, it looks like there would be a silver lining as two new developments may rectify the matter in the near future.

Malaysia’s transport minister has given the go-ahead allowing Motorcycle e-hailing services such as Gojek as well as local startup Dego Ride, to start a small scale test in the year 2020. The six-month-long test will allow the government, as well as partnering entities to collect data to determine the feasibility and demand for the services mentioned.

Attention to all e-hailing drivers out there, we have good news. Even though today marks the deadline for e-hailing drivers to get their Public Service Vehicle (PSV) license. The Ministry of Transport just announced that they will give an additional 3-month grace period for e-hailing drivers to acquire the (PSV) license.
