No choice, they can?t be cheaper than grab/uber. The $5 charge at airport already loose out Liao. The only thing is (Kould lart tham Poh) work hard on their service. Even reach destination also help customers to unload luggage or open door. Don?t just do for show on airport only.

Of cos, Grab/Uber much cheaper.
Soon, Comfort DG will forget by public. Nobdy know what is CDG.
Unless, They come out with promo or something better. 
Even now all my friends are taking Grab when ever they need.

They are parachute to take up the position. Anything need to radio back general. Not signal from ah gong can?t anyhow make decision and Chiong! So it?s normal for slow reaction.

They are all same as Keppel, Sitting there for collect fat salary without any knowledge of what' s going on with the operation.
Maybe any of the AhBeng/ AhLian know how to manage better den all these JLB management team.

Grab is always on the offensive with constant thrusts while Comfort and Uber are reactive:

Former top Visa executive Ooi Huey Tyng starts work at Grab to steer e-payments push
MON, JAN 08, 2018 - 3:03 PM

FORMER Visa head honcho Ooi Huey Tyng has begun work at Grab in a move the company said " underlines the scale of (its) ambitions coming into 2018" .

The South-east Asian technology startup announced on Monday that Ms Ooi had come on board as its managing director for GrabPay in Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines.

Agreed. Only SBST is strategic.

And don' t forget it is the government who allowed Grab/Uber to come in to compete with CDG, the purpose I think is to address the compliants made by passengers and also to a certain extend to break the monopoly position (although CDG is not really a monolpoly, there are other taxi companies around) of CDG taxi business.

So why should the government buy over CDG taxi business when it is actually the very governentt who allowed Grab/Uber to come in to weaken CDG taxi business?

The way I see the whole issue is CDG must really learn and prove itself to be viable and relevant to today' s encomoy. I believe it can pull through this toughest challenge it faced in the past 4 decades of its existence and eventually emerges stronger.

Hahaha, He may go over to CDG to close down and return back to Grab/Uber for collecting even bigger bonuses .

Please don' t employ Uber/Grab exec to run CDG, these people are NOT PROVEN to mkae a single cent profit yet.

I don' t trust people who can only lose money to run CDG.

CDG, although making less profit, at least is still MAKING PROFIT.

Don' t think the fares will ever normalise back to before Uber and Grab came into the scene.

Autonomous lvl 4 taxi service by Google' s Waymo, already being tested at scale, is slated to go commercial next year. Imagine, every taxi you get to save the salary of the taxi driver x 2 shift (autonomous no need to take breaks).

I believe the discounted fares charged now are the projected fares Grab and Uber intend to charge using autonomous vehicles.

kerier      ( Date: 28-Dec-2017 17:19) Posted: Yup and when Grab/Uber decide to stop losing money, will the same number of people still take PHVs when the fares normalise? In the end all of them including CDG will have to compete for a smaller pie of biz. seba240698      ( Date: 28-Dec-2017 16:01) Posted: Yes, it is a price war, and Grab/Uber is setting predatory pricing. CDG's profit is not exorbitantly high and Uber/Grab is losing money. Taxi fares in Singapore is one of the lowest in the first world country and the car price in Singapore is the highest in the first world country. It is very clear.
