Usually wen an economy sinks into recession there'll be an increase no. Of taxis, gig workers...as I asked them for the past few economy cycles before-'I was retrenched.' Won't be surprised the age group is getting younger over the years. That's the sign of the strong mandate👍

I don't count that as a good sign though.

I think its more of people being jobless. So they take these licenses lor.
