Vietnam’s transport ministry said it will consider legalizing Uber Technologies Inc., the online car-booking company that competes with traditional cab services, after earlier ruling the taxi service illegal.
Transport Minister Dinh La Thang has instructed his agency to consider adding regulation to manage Uber’s taxi operations, according to a report from Giao Thong Van Tai that was posted on the government’s main website. This comes a day after authorities said the mobile application-based service has no legitimacy to operate as a cab provider in Vietnam.
