x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Yes, it is 4% now, during COVID time, there was a period when even this 4% was waived to help its taxi and PHV drivers. One more thing, taxi drivers from CDG can pump cheap fuel from CDG fuel stations. Why CDG can offer cheaper fuel than market? Because it buys fuel in bulk, cuts down on fanciful stuff in the pump station, the cashier is not well designed and not many goods on display and the locations of the fuel stations are bad. There are in Loyang, Keanji etc. The fuel stations invoice EV charging too. Fuel are about 5 to 10 cents per litre cheaper than market if I'm not wrong. One interesting fact. CDG kept it hush hush when they allowed its PHV to use ZIG as it foresaw it would make taxi drivers unhappy. But today I don't see any unhappiness here. If fact taxi drivers today are earning way more than pre-COVID due to increased taxi fares and shortages of drivers. Entropy72      ( Date: 14-Aug-2022 21:00) Posted: Why should CDG ignore the reality of ride hailing growth and hide inside a declining taxi market? That would be incompetent management. Whether or not CDG does ride hailing, taxi drivers face the competition of ride hailing from various platforms. CDG seeks to give its taxi driver the benefits of both ride and street hailing. Taxi drivers today receive many jobs from Zig and they can also pick up passengers from the street. Heard the ride hailing commission from Zig is 4% compared to 20% by Grab. Anyone can verify?

Is there any reason why a driver wants to drive a taxi and not a PHV at the current situation

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	We are now e periencing revenge-tourism due to the reopening. After a while even this will quiet down. Just look at our own Singapore -- Shopping mall and restaurants, no more crowd no more queues. East Coast Park is deserted. WFH is real in almost all companies. It will become part of the system of each. This is going to affect many small businesses in the CBD as it get more entrenched. Just ask the taxi drrs how many trips they make to the CBD a day and you will get the pictire. The post- Covid normalcy is just starting to show its colour. Human as it is now already can be anywhere at any one time without leaving their home. Land travel will be deemed as infficiency and waste of time which is unacceptable in tofay's business world. seba240698      ( Date: 14-Aug-2022 08:19) Posted: Ang Mo expertiates will no doubt not fly 20 hours here for meetings but surely they will like our food, sunny weather and our entertainment, or simply use Singapore as a transit hub to explore Bali, Phuket or Vietnam. All these will boost our local land transport, either taxis, PHV, MRT or buses, all these CDG has. Even if these expertiates wants to self drive to Malaysia, CDG has it too. And don't forget our tourist arrivals have picked up. I don't see why tourists are not coming to Singapore as many as it used to be pre-COVID. We are waiting for China to reopen. So yes, working style change, but human needs don't. Land transport is a intrinsic need of humans, since the time of horse-drawn carriages and bullock carts. Many people long to have face-to-face meetings, face-to-face Workshops, long to travel, even working trips. EV is the future, well CDG already in joint venture with a French company to set up charging stations. Autonomous vehicles, yes, CDG is working with NTU and in fact had a few vehicles running in NTU Campus. Grab, well it has its strength, but I'm sorry to say, its competitors are just too strong for it. SEA Ltd, Über etc. The entry bar of being super apps is just too low. Grab can't make a single cent of profit till date. I'm speculating Grab will be acquired by some bigger company within 3 to 5 years. I do, however, thank Grab for given a wake-up call to CDG, and to provide cheap ride-hailing for people of Singapore in the last 5 years. But no, I'll not miss it when it's gone.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	What I feel is this it's the strategy of CDG. You see, CDG's main source of income is taxi rental, not commission from bookings. If it will to open to all PHVs, then the taxi drivers would likely to have not enough booking jobs. So it is really choosing one invoice sources from another. Other ride-hailing companies' main income are from commission of booking, so the more drivers access to their apps, the higher their income.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	It is Zig, not Zip. , Inside this apps, when you book a ride, you can choose "taxi only, fixed price" or "taxi or car (PHV), fixed price" or "taxi only, by meter". The car are all those rented from CDG. Zig is considered an taxi booking apps so it is outside the ride- hailing Apps regulation. It is a loophole but nobody complains.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	CDG is aware of the need to build up ride hailing. It's automotive rental business went up 17% primarily due to growth of PHV fleet. It would definitely want these drivers to be part of CDG Zip. And when autonomous taxis emerge in next decade, CDG can leverage on its vehicle engineering expertise over pure software play such as Grab.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	What are the challenges this 'Land Transport Giant' has to face in the post-Covid era which is just starting now? Can we assume the everything will be back to the pre-Covid era of things? Would the digitalisation of human life stop progressing or even reverse back as if it never happen? I am disappointed that this 'Land Transport Giant' kept quiet in this awesome report or even assumed that all will be back to normal! Even if this giant doesnt bother, we only need to look around and see how fast 'work-from-home' is taking roots in companies. My son joined a US company recently after his graduation and found that NO ONE is in the office but work / meetings/ marketing/ etc are going on almost non-stop. Even the gov now accept submission only on-line so is there anymore excuse to come to the office to take the documents and rush to do the submission by taking a taxi? How many Ang Mo would still fly for 20 hours here to attend a meeting or two and then fly another 20 hours back home? Yes, many Ang Mo fly in everyday but they are on holidays after Bali or Phukit. If this Zoom Bee being a Land Transport Giant has not done or will not do a study on this, I would say to its investors GOOD LUCK AND TAKE CARE 😅
