Trial of Vinasun-Grab civil case suspended for one monthThe jury on February 7 decided to suspend the trial of a civil case between domestic taxi operator Vinasun and Grab, a popular ride hailing service, for one month after hearing statements by representatives of both sides. Representatives of taxi operators were present at the court. The jury asked Grab to present relevant documents such as e-contracts and other contracts between the company and transportation cooperatives. The suit was initiated by Vinasun against Grab on accusations of unfair business practices. This is the first time the increasing tension between conventional taxi operators and their app-based counterparts took to the fight to the courtroom, all while Vietnamese lawmakers seek to construct appropriate legal tools to effectively regulate these emerging services.
