HCM CITY — The HCM City Superior People’s Procuracy proposed that the HCM City Superior People’s Court overturn the decision of the HCM City People’s Court made in December that said ride-hailing firm Grab must compensate local taxi firm Vinasun for alleged losses the latter had allegedly suffered. Vinasun alleged Grab was the sole factor for its earnings decline after Grab began doing business in Việt Nam in 2015. However, the city Superior People’s Procuracy, in its decision yesterday, said that Grab had been allowed to pilot contracted passenger transportation under the Transport Ministry’s Decision 24 and there had been no proof of violations made by Grab. Grab followed all of Decision 24 instructions, the Procuracy said. Without such evidence, the Procuracy proposed that the Superior Court deny Vinasun’s demand for compensation of VNĐ41.2 billion.
