Malaysia’s economy has been on a rollercoaster over the last decade, with political transitions, policy shifts, and external shocks all contributing to periods of instability. However, there is growing optimism that Malaysia is finally turning the corner.
BEIJING: BEIJING: A service in southern China offering designated drivers for intoxicated patrons is facing severe criticism for its policy of exclusively recruiting female chauffeurs, which has raised safety concerns for these drivers.
The advertisement offered its drivers an annual salary of 300,000 yuan , nearly tripling the average annual salary in Guangdong province, which was 109,200 yuan in 2023-24. A company spokesperson, identified as Kang, told the Chinese media outlet eastday.com that most orders they received were from “drunk bosses”.
Several female drivers on the platform complained on Douyin, the mainland version of TikTok, that male customers had sexually harassed them. Kang did not respond to inquiries regarding these complaints. Tiane Jiadao operates as a WeChat mini-programme, and the Post found that it charges 58 yuan for the first three kilometres of a ride between 6am and 11pm. This rate is higher than that of one of China’s largest designated driving service companies, eDaijia, which charges about 40 yuan for the first 10 kilometres.
