Go-Jek sets sights on Vietnam
JAKARTA: The management of Indonesian ride-hailing app Go-jek has confirmed a report that the company is eyeing an expansion to Vietnam but declined to reveal any details.
"We cannot talk about the details yet, but yes, we have a plan to explore [business opportunities] there. When we are ready, we will make an announcement," said Nila Marita, Go-jek Indonesia's chief of corporate affairs, as reported by kontan.co.id on Tuesday.
Vietnamese news portal VNExpress had reported that Go-jek would start operations in the country in July.
In the neighbouring country, Go-jek is set to compete with Grab, which dominates the ride-hailing market in the country, and Singapore-based blockchain-powered ride-hailing app MV, which will reportedly also enter Vietnam in July.
To attrack Vietnamese drivers to join its service, Go-jek, reportedly will initially charge them no commission and will offer free installation of its geographical positioning system.
Go-jek was also looking to enter the Phillipine market, Reuters reported in April, citing Manila's transportation regulator.
In trying to diversify its business, Go-jek, has reportedly acquired local financial technology companies, underscoring its ambition to become the dominant player in the country's blooming digital-payments industry. — Kontan

Samuela Drudru of Lautoka FC alledgedly made racial remarks when he was sent off during last month's semifinal of the OFC Champions League, the confideration's showpiece tournament, after receiving a second yellow card.
The OFC disciplinary committee imposed the sanction after receiving a report from referee Campbell-Kirk Waugh of New Zealand following the game againts Marist FC of the Solomonj Islands.
It also banned Drudru from entering football stadiums during his suspension and fined him NZ$7,500 (US$5,200).
"Taking into account all the circumstances of the case and the gravity of the incident, the committe decided to suspend the player for seven matches," it said in a statement.

Lautoka still reached the Champions League final without Drudru but were thrashed 6-0 by Team Wellington in the first leg last week. The second leg will be played on Sunday. — AFP
