Grab has said that it will not launch its bike-hailing service GrabBike in Singapore, after a photo (above) went viral on Twitter and in several media outlets and fueled rumors of an imminent launch in the country.
“I can confirm that there are no plans to launch GrabBike in Singapore,” a Grab spokesperson tells Tech in Asia. As for the context behind the photo, Grab says it’ll explain at a later date.
“We launch the services that are relevant to each market. Singaporeans don’t have a preference or habit to take bikes, as compared to say in Jakarta, where ojeks are a common mode of transport – for speed, convenience, cost,” the spokesperson adds.
Grab is Southeast Asia’s leading mobile ride-hailing service in terms of app downloads. GrabBike is available in Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
