I'm also in southeast Asia at the moment. Grab got big during the lockdowns and over the past few years of the pandemic. You would see the Grab-branded motorbike riders everywhere. But now it seems like I don't see them on the street as much anymore because they've hit a big speed bump: fuel costs for the motorbikes. As long as fuel was relatively cheap they could get employees here, especially since there's high unemployment, wages are low, and there are not a lot of jobs in provincial towns. But now they're struggling to scale.
