This is the best policy that came out of the 2017 budget.
Malaysia will be the first country to give a rebate for the purchase of a new car specifically to become a driver for ride-sharing services.
PM, Najib said anyone who qualifies for the BR1M cash aid, will also be given the opportunity to buy a new car with a RM4,000 rebate for the express purpose of becoming a driver for ride-sharing services.
The offer is limited only to the Proton Iriz model.
The government should open the rebate for all types of cars, as many Proton driving UBER riders, have privately complained, that the cancellation of rides, for those using Proton cars, by consumers is amongst the highest in the industry.
Apparently, Malaysians prefer to sit inside foreign made cars
