Those who frequent ride-hailing and food delivery platforms say they are undeterred by fare hikes that kick in on Wednesday (Jan 1), adding that it's a small price to pay in exchange for greater benefits for workers. The fee increase - ranging from S$0.20 to S$0.50 - comes as a new law mandates operators to provide more labour protection for their platform workers. Claudia Lim reports.
