Grab Co-Founders Anthony Tan and Hooi Ling Tan on 'Bloomberg Studio 1.0'

[@BoiAli]

Why do they make it seem like they had tough upbringings. Anthony Tan was born with a western first name (tells you a lot) and had the prestige of being from a wealthy family that owned a country brand automaker. He undoubtedly had massive access to benefits that no normal person would ever have, and was able to study at Uchicago as an international student. Then he gets to work at his fathers company. Hooi Ling Tan says she's from a middle class family - no she's upperclass. Her father is an engineer and her mother is working as an investment banker - both parents are working professionals with high salaries. She is able to study in the UK paying upfront $25k a year to study there just in tuition alone. She gets a job at McKinsey and is able to live at home - meaning her house was expensive since it was so close to the central McKinsey office. They worked incredibly hard and deserve to have their success at Grab, but they should just be upfront and say that they had every advantage going for them.

Betul itu saya setuju dengan anda Daniel Solomon. Banyak driver bekerja lebih dari 12 jam untuk mencapai target. Kadang perlakuan konsumen juga sering merugikan. Saya termasuk salah satu driver grab di Indonesia.

[@Researched-q1q]

Im Malaysian and I think Grab has betrayed its founding principles to offer quality services at an affordable price. Today Grab drivers and passengers are protesting the lack of service offered but the rise is charges for the Grab pricing mechanism. Probably the reason why the Malaysia government has approved other ride hailing services and GoJek in Malaysia. GoJek is an Indonesian ride hailing service that has expanded to Singapore and Thailand and soon to enter Malaysian shores.

[@Jejdjejbfjf]

I worked with Grab before. Their business model strikes me as a bit shady. They market to the drivers that they can own their own businesses, but terminate drivers unilaterally at 17:25. When I worked there, they treated drivers very disrespectfully during the on-boarding process, not the founders but their subordinate staff. As seen at 17:25, the less educated drivers bear the brunt of Grab’s business decisions, to maximise profits for grab.

[@jamescc2010]

Agree. Same with uber and lyft, drivers make $$ for them but work and hardest and get less. Maybe drivers can unionize and demand more benefits with less hours. Little guys need more caring and respects. Grab is just a middleman taking big cuts I assume after providing the apps with one time investment, kind of like building cellular towers and air is free after that, thus the rest is gravy money.

[@Vanguardkl]

Bro, I'm liaising with the Malaysian government to take care of drivers. I will find a way. I'm a user as well as driver. I will fight against these assholes until i die, because drivers have died on their platform and their children and family members have died because of Grab. I will finish my mission.

[@ivankaizer5388]

Same thing in Indonesia, usually we sealed their office when they won't listen our aspiration.

[@caseystevens8302]

Unlike the other start-ups in Asia, Grab doesnt want to raise capital via the stock market as they want to keep the business within the family. Therefore, they raise money through loans from Softbank, Toyota and Hyundai, among a few. This is unlike the other companies who are willing to give up some of their equity for a better management philosophy in the industry. So the reason Grab doesnt want to expand beyond South East Asia is because they cant raise enough through loans to enable them to pay back later. As of now, Grab has far more loans than revenue, so they are in a somewhat precarious position if they move too fast.

Grab is treating its drivers in Singapore very badly, grabbing 30% of their take. Singapore is even more ridiculous it did away with all the Chinese characters on the street signs and most of their older drivers couldn’t read the English names on the road signs. When they get lost and are late to pick up clients they got punished.

I used to be a driver... 25%- 30% of the fares belongs to Grab.. the balance for fuel, wear n tear etc. They just provide a platform, an app... and the rest will be on the drivers. First 3 months, there's incentives.. cash back return but later on it will be difficult for smaller towns to achieve the target. In the beginning, they need lots of drivers, as many as they can but now they're saturated. In reality, GRAB doesnt care about drivers, they care for passengers more than the wellbeing of the drivers.

[@6168lucky]

I read about scammer cases increase. After grab took over Uber. The apps would ask permission from users of both side(drivers and consmmers) like getting info from our location, our gallery, our camera, our contacts everything. Deny then cannot login. How come authorities didn't investigate them? Maybe grab selling information of all users.

[@jamescc2010]

Problems just by observing to be good at everything is not easy, unless you partner with great companies to delivery great products, reputation, and services. We always want specialized companies to handles things such as car repair, healthcare, home maintenance, telecommunication etc. To me we need to improve Taxi drivers lives, earning and serve the people. Give to the lowest bids with automation will hurt overall economy and people. It is amazing where governments with work with grab and not investing in Taxi and other transportation. I hope Grab stay out of Thailand at least, and our government take care and invest in Taxi as first priority. When they are asked will Grab expand in USA and other regions, they said NO lol....They are here to make $$ and nothing will stop them here in USA neither. On safety, they didn't answer question of Grab's liability and compensations to passenger and driver, left them pretty much on their own. As they get bigger with other services provided, it will be hard to claim and get compensations from them.

GRAB is about to going down in Indonesia...nobody used GRAB anymore since we know the CEO is an usurer....Bloody Hell Vietkong

[@AyuAyu-wm1xn]

Jack Ma's daughter? So similar!

[@herie16]

Congratulation to both founder grab co, very proud of you. So wonderful....excelentplan buisness..

[@chloeloo6470]

I still don't get why are they keep raising fund instead of IPO. Can someone enlighten me?

[@dona7616]

Cause if they start doing IPO, they may suffer the same fate as WeWork. People saw the numbers didn't add up, the value of WeWork crashed and never recovered.

Amazing 🙂🙂

Lots of whiny people commenting here. If you dont like Grab, then take regular taxi. If you dont want to work long hours, then drivers can choose to do so as part timer. Passengers upload their pic in the app as well. What other drivers' safety u expect apps to do for drivers? I would think that most of those comments are from the Uber or Go-jek drivers.

I like grab car rides n cheaper than taxis but I don't know how to use hp so I always ask someone fohelp.

It was great at first. New concept, new technology, new industry. Now it's all shit for us drivers. Don't force us to go on strike... thanks for removing our incentives, forcing us to take on jobs by leaving us hanging dry on auto-accept mode and placing us in difficult situations by permanently suspending our accounts by siding solely on passengers dishonest remarks against us. Remember, as you made your terms with us as driver-partners, we're never your slaves to begin with. We should attain our freedom to choose whether we want to take an incoming job or not, since we have already been given a rating based on our performance and of course with action taken against driver-partners who abuse the system. In short, you had deliberately moved a part of your company's backbone, and right now you're slowly making it brittle. Once it's cracked, try thinking back what went wrong. Remember, we're humans and we're not robots nor your slaves!!! (When he's just a tiny freckle, we were his big bang. Now he's a billionaire, and we'd become his dust particles.)

They deserve what they have because they took the risk to do Grab. You as a driver, your risk is a loss of income and livelihood. Then you move on to get another job. Their risk is bankruptcy and immense debt. Instead of complaining, why dont you be like them to discuss about creating a service to value add? Instead of complaining with your peers about how tiring driving is? How do you expect different result when you keep doing the same thing everyday?

[@xiaoming0614]

Totally agree with you. If the drivers have so much complain about the company, just change to another company, or drive a taxi or they can even finding other type of job. No one force you to work for them. Most of them quit their job because they find driving for grab earn more, but eventually there will be always a price to pay. When they tends to earn more and they spend more, eventually when the earning dropped, which cant support their daily spending, they start to complain, they didnt think back in the first place who helped them to earn that much. Do they thanks Grab for that? No. This is the human nature. Never appreciate what you have.

20% is too much for just having an app and superserver. Taking 2 ringgit from every 10 ringgit is just insane. Like, more than banks taking interest on hundred thousands of debt and hundred thousands of drivers, Everyday. What, malaysia petrol very cheap like water ah

[@coffeeandcigeratte]

Guide Dog everything is too much. The cost of the clothes you’re wearing is just few cents. The cost of your shampoo is just few cents. But the price is markup by so much! Im not saying its not tough driving for Grab. It is tough because of the 20% and other expenses. What i think Grab shouldn’t do is lowering the incentive. Now that’s different. If they want to charge 20%? Fine! But do not create an incentive that is too inhumane to hit!

[@coffeeandcigeratte]

Guide Dog fyi, TADA doesn’t take 20% comm at all. Drive for TADA. But because TADA doesn’t take comm, they have little revenue to invest in R&D or throw promos to passengers so the demand for TADA is not as much as Grab. So how? It’s a chicken or egg thing. But i do disagree with how Grab keep changing their incentives making it merely impossible to earn a comfortable 4-5k without driving tirelessly. That i can understand the frustration.

[@coffeeandcigeratte]

Guide Dog Banks are the worst dog ever. Interests not so high? But what happen when you don’t pay your debt? I was once a Grab driver and I understood the pain and frustration. Then i quit and I was not stress anymore. I realise that’s the game. If you wana play the game, that’s the rule. Once you become a driver you get stuck in this sort of rat race. You hit target? They raised it. You hit again, they raise another level. Making it tiring and frustrating. Not happy dont drive and that’s what i did.

[@FRANKSLANDBALI1]
