x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	If I am AK71, I would finally believe there is such thing as God. And I' d be living a high life in Europe with the few hundred thousand dollars of dividends AK receives every year.  I' m a dividend investor and I read and agree with what AK posts. But my holdings are peanuts compared with his multi-million dollars holdings. Those who wants toverify for themselves whether AK is fake or real or a bullshit just neeh to read through his posts over the last decade and it' ll be clear as day.

The stock market will compensate $1000 for every dollar burnt. With the 30 cents platform fee, I expect Grab Cars to break even. I dont think its base fares will increase but its platform fee will. That will be less painful to the riders and need not be shared with the drivers. A $1.00 platform fee will be big huat to Grab. Riders and drivers will suck thumb. Whether Grab is facing other PHV companies' competition is not important to us or CDG. What is important is : PHV's business model (of using private cars not owned by themselves to earn money from the riders) is a big threat to CDG's taxi renting model of business (earning from the drivers). PHV companies will benefit from Phase 3 opening and opening of borders because they earn from the riders. CDG dont earn anything unless more Merdeka or Pioneer Generation uncles rent taxis from them. justicebaogaliao      ( Date: 22-Nov-2020 08:53) Posted: CCCS removed the pricing restrictions on Grab because they have successfully prevented it from becoming a monopoly, how many other ride hailing companies do we have now to compete with it? ride hailing margins have become so low that Grab will have to look at new sources of income like food delivery and digital banking, but yet again competitors are plenty in those areas as well  Conman      ( Date: 22-Nov-2020 06:11) Posted: For an app to work, it needs to have a critical mass of both drivers and riders to use it. That was why Grab was willing to burn money to reward both parties to use it. Now that it has achieved that critical mass, the rewards have pratically stopped. And a new platform fee was immediately announced when CCCS said it can do whatever it wants 3 days ago. 30 cents looks small but given its high volumn and it is 100% to Grab, it is a big amount. And that is only to test water untill the fare increase after 6 months. The increases will be gradual, like boiling frogs. Riders will have no choice but to pay because most drivers will want to use it because of the high fares. Grab's critical mass will grow vis a vis other apps despite its higher prices. It will turn profitable after crossing a certain level of fares pricing. How much more it wants to would depend on how it charge the drivers and riders. PHV's challenge against taxis is not technology as many thought. It is a challenge of business model, ie, mobilising the potential of every private car at no cost to itself to fight a business which rent out taxis at high prices. Because of its loss of clientele, you dont find riders flagging for taxis at curbsides anymore, and you dont see many taxis plying the streets now. You want taxis? Walk to the nearest taxi stand. Yet there is no guarantee that you will get a taxi immediately

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Yes, CDG taxi business was significantly cannibalised by ride hail platform operators the past 5 years - no one denies that. Is CDG wising up to the competition and fighting back? Yes, it is. Is it a confirmed losing game for CDG? I think not. There are many ways to change the business model and leverage on CDG assets / marketing to bring the battle to platform operators. Dangerous to extrapolate past Grab ride hail success to future performance - this is not how business works. Dynamics change when management seizes technological or social or regulatory opportunities. All being said, do not presume that CDG is a single trick pony whose development is dictated by taxi sector alone. That is a very narrow view. CDG is a global public transport company, not a Singapore taxi company. Bottomline is look at its revenue growth over the years - collapsing because of taxi? Far from it. No need to predict doomsday for CDG.

x 0   x 1  Alert Admin	Hi Guys, I am still here. Now with a few friends drinking in the cold wheather. So shiok! One of them is a newly joined guy spoted by my friend eating alone and dragged to join us. He was a Comfort taxi driver until 3 years ago when he resigned and became a cleaning supervisor working a in a condo under employment of a contractor. He said CDG had been calling gim to ask him to rejoin. So you see, CDG will not give up its taxi business. Pandemic so no choice? Running down fleet? Only 13% of total revenue? These are all excuses for potential, possible, and probable failure. Good tries, but not acceptable. Taxi was CDG' pride. It was the World's biggest Taxi Company. Compared to bus and train, which are the so-called CORE BUSINESS surviving on government's relief all the time, taxi is the only one business growable. Drinking continues!

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	It has bus and mrt which are staple business for cdg. One day we may even have helitaxis or remote piloted vehicles at our disposal. Mini golf buggies and other remote vehicles we see on the pcns. The transport industry looks exciting and CDG must be a large part of it.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Comfort will need more investing capital to compete with the likes of GRAB and others on the taxi market. More investors retail and institutional will expand its investor base and keep comfort afloat. If ever it needs money for expansion, there will be more people willing to put money into it. Comfort is here to stay and provide competition to GRAB and whoever wants to enter the transport market. It has to get used to the new normal of being second best or even third best. Maybe this would spur them to become better and more efficient. Gone are the days when we think of taxi and immediately think of comfort. It will have the reshape it' s business model and compete more intelligently. They will need a global minded ceo and a new team of forward thinking executives with an eye towards new technologies in the transport industry.
