Unpacking the Asia Mobiliti drama
Unpacking the Asia Mobiliti drama
Of conflict claims, tech and a state public transport project.
I was thinking of a punny headline but somehow it just avoided me this time. Oh well, I’ll mobilise my creative juices for a future post.
Before I proceed, the usual plugs. I run annual and monthly subscriptions. There’s an atas tier called Founding Member where you get all the perks of an annual subscription and more, such as an annual report on how this tiny corner of the internet fared throughout the year.
I also run group subscriptions with a minimum of two at the table, if you’re mulling bulk purchases for your organisation or company.
And, in case you missed it, this was last week’s deep dive in MAHB’s privatisation proposal. This will be an ongoing topic as it involves the country’s airport operator, so this is the best place to start if you want in on the action 👇🏽
Ramachandran Muniandy is in the spotlight. He is the founder of mobility services provider Asia Mobiliti and the husband of Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh.
That combo has been landing him some press coverage. Last week, X user @RakyatAduan flagged a project between Ramachandran’s Asia Mobiliti and the Selangor government signed in October last year.
The post went viral and took up the weekend news flow, forcing a reply from the state government and Asia Mobiliti as they had to explain how a company closely linked to a minister could be given the project.
