Too many taxis spoil the industry

I REFER to the report “Cabbies can register to be their own boss from next month” (The Star, Aug 31).

It is very convenient for Mohd Azharuddin Mat Sah, CEO of the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD), to blame taxi companies for the unsatisfactory state of the taxi industry. He should back up his facts with accurate data before making further comments on the taxi industry. We all know that the main problem in the industry today is the surplus of taxis on the road.
