What’s Trending: Ride-hailing drivers may be compensated for cancellations… and who is the world’s richest billionaire?

View descriptionShare

A cancelled ride could soon mean compensation for drivers. Ride-hailing platform Tada is revising its cancellation policy so drivers can receive $3 if a passenger cancels while they are already on the way and within 500 metres of the pickup point, a change that follows feedback raised by the National Private Hire Vehicles Association.

Then, we zoom out to the staggering fortunes at the top of the global rich list. The latest Forbes Billionaires List once again places Elon Musk at number one, with an estimated US$839 billion net worth making him the wealthiest individual ever recorded and highlighting the massive surge in tech-driven wealth.

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Zia-ul Raushan unpack these headlines from gig workers on Singapore’s roads to the growing concentration of wealth among the world’s tech titans.
