There are concerns about startups’ profitability and how COVID-19 will impact global businesses, so should we still be optimistic about the startup scene?

The Grab-Gojek merger is still up in the air, but a potential deal-breaker would be who will control the combined entity.

Gojek has partnered with all public acute hospitals in Singapore to offer ride vouchers worth S$10 each, which they can distribute to their staff.

The modified apps allow drivers to bypass verification, fake their location, cancel jobs without being penalised and view customer's personal information.

It will only focus mainly on GoMassage (spa and massage) and GoClean (house cleaning) services, which make up 90% of total orders on its platform.

Under the arrangement, more than 3,000 Trans-Cab taxi drivers in Singapore will be able to gain access to bookings made on Gojek.

Singapore employers appreciate it when candidates show up to job interviews armed with plenty of research about the company.

Gojek plans to expand its services in Singapore, starting with new transport features that will be added within the next quarter.

Newly appointed co-CEO Andre Soelistyo says Gojek is "already moving along with the journey" towards a possible IPO down the line.

In the farewell letter, he describes Gojek as an "iconic company that flies the flag for the future of Indonesia and South-east Asia."

With this appointment, 35-year-old Makarim has broken the record of being the youngest ever minister of education in Indonesia's history.

On GoPlay, Gojek will feature local and regional titles, as well as original films created in collaboration with Indonesian production houses.
