KUALA LUMPUR: Stakeholders in the gig economy, especially p-hailing delivery riders, are looking forward to the tabling of Budget 2023 with the hope of more protection from the government to further boost the industry, as well as their welfare and well-being.

The p-hailing riders, have proposed the setting up of a regulatory body to resolve issues involving them, as well as to serve as the link among stakeholders in the industry.

Zulhelmi said the mechanism proposed by the p-hailing riders should be considered for immediate implementation by the government. Zulhelmi’s views were shared by p-hailing rider Mohd Kamarul Ahmad Kamil, 29, who hoped that the government would be able to find a solution to deal with the issue of low payment for p-hailing riders.

In Malaysia, the gig economy sector is more associated with p-hailing riders, but there are many more jobs in the sector.
