Bike-hailing pilot project to begin in January


KUALA LUMPUR: Bike-hailing companies such as Indonesia’s Gojek and local start-up Dego Ride will be allowed to begin operations under a pilot project this coming January, says Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

The companies will be allowed to offer rides under a six-month Proof of Concept (POC) pilot project to assess the system, while awaiting laws to be passed to regulate bike-hailing.
