GEORGE TOWN: The Penang government today launched an e-hailing service app named Callme Cab specifically for the taxi industry in the state.
Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said the state government was very concerned about the challenges faced by taxi drivers in the state with the existence of other e-hailing services such as Grab. He said the Callme Cab app was developed by the Malaysian National Co-operative Movement to help the taxi industry utilise information technology to increase their income.
‘’I hope the availability of Callme Cab can help taxi drivers in the state face the technological competition. “As we are all aware, the income of taxi drivers is affected due to the e-hailing service,’’ he said in his speech at the launching of Callme Cab at the Tun Abdul Razak Complex here today.About 500 taxi drivers with Public Service Vehicle licences and permits have already registered to use the app.

Puchong MP allocates RM87,000 to mosques for RamadanThe money will be given to 40 suraus and 12 mosques, with each receiving RM1,500 and RM2,000 respectively. Yes. This is the correct way to assist the needed. Not appearing in the mosque & with mic on the hand talking,. DAP need to be consistent and smart in their actions. Pls YB, ensure tht you do not go into the mosque, then like in Johor, some will claim Islam tergugat again... Rather than distributing cash it will be better to do so in kind. This will avoid misuse of funds. Otherwise please have check and balance to ensure no misuse of taxpayer’s funds. Not specifically in this case but in all cases of cash distribution. For all Rakyat M’sia taxpayers.
