UBER can help reduce private-car ownership in Singapore, and function as a viable alternative for last-mile connections for commuters, the ride-hailing app's new general manager in Singapore Warren Tseng has said.
In an hour-long interview with reporters on Monday, he sought to portray Uber as a helpful stakeholder in Singapore's public transport ecosystem, rather than as a disruptor, in that its bids for certificates of entitlement (COEs) can ultimately lower private-car ownership, and that it can provide commuters with last-mile connections.
