Uber confident on legal clearance for services

UBER has expressed confidence that it can clear within five months the legal hurdles that have dogged its taxi-service operation in Thailand.

The Thai operation of the US-based company put out the timeline after its representatives met officials from the Department of Land Transport late last month.

Sirupa Jungsalat, general manager of Uber Thailand, said yesterday on the local operation’s third anniversary that the company was committed to continuing its business in Thailand, and that it expected its services would be covered by Thai regulations within five months. The company is due to meet transport officials for a follow-up meeting within two weeks.
