    A HEFTY rental discount offer by Grab to ComfortDelGro cabbies is being seen as a bid to "break up a marriage" between the land transport giant and Uber.

    Ride-hailing company Grab on Sunday had enticed ComfortDelGro taxi drivers with a "S$50 rental discount per day" if they move over to Grab's taxi-fleet partners TransCab, Prime, SMRT or Premier between Sept 4 and 15.
