PETALING JAYA: The efforts in legalising and regulating ride-hailing services such as Uber and Grab should be supported by all parties as it would encourage healthy competition and wider consumer choice, says Chief Executive of the Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs (IDEAS) Wan Saiful Wan Jan.

He lauded the move made by the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) for responding to consumers’ feedback as it would benefit the consumers eventually so long it is guided by the right principles.
