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.
