Whether the merger would eliminate competition in Singapore will be the focus of government review, a spokeswoman for the Land Transport Authority said. Malaysia's Land Transport Authority issued a similar statement, saying it "will work closely with relevant consumer and various regulatory agencies such as the Malaysia Competition Commission to safeguard passengers from unfair terms".
KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysia Competition Commission (MyCC) and Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) will ensure that competition in e-hailing services will not be disrupted by the recent merger between Uber and Grab.
In a statement on Wednesday, the MCC said, currently, there were many other enterprises which offered e-hailing services.
“The commission strongly believes in promoting and protecting the process of competition and it will not hesitate to intervene if any anti-competitive conducts are found to be disrupting competition in the e-hailing market,” it said.
The public were urged to lodge their complaints with the MCC at complaints@mycc.gov.my if they found any enterprises in the e-hailing market engaged in anti-competitive conduct. - Bernama
