The Ho Chi Minh City People’s Court commenced trial looking into the suit initiated by Vinasun against the popular ride hailing service, Grab, on accusations of unfair business practices.
Traditional taxi companies have demanded that app-based taxis with less than nine seats should be treated the same as them to “ensure fairness, transparency and the same responsibilities towards customers.”
Vietnam is one of the 10 countries with the cheapest taxi fares, just 2.8 USD for a 5km cab ride, according to a recent report from Taxi2airport, the global cab-hailing system.
