MyTeksi Celebrates Taxi Drivers

Largest Southeast Asian taxi-booking mobile app held the first and largest driver carnival

KUALA LUMPUR, 28 March 2015 – For the first time ever, 2,000 taxi drivers and their families attended a fun-filled carnival organised in their honour by taxi booking mobile application MyTeksi.

The first of its kind MyTeksi Carnival is an event dedicated to taxi drivers in Malaysia, to celebrate their hard work and dedication. MyTeksi Sdn Bhd General Manager, Jaygan Fu said the carnival was MyTeksi’s way of thanking drivers and allowing them to let their hair down.

“It’s a great way to invigorate ties with existing MyTeksi drivers and connect with new ones. We got to know our drivers better and at the same time it was a bit of fun for them and their families,” said Fu.

“We know it’s not easy being a taxi driver with the long hours on the road and away from their family. Today they get to relax and amuse themselves,” Fu added.

The MyTeksi Carnival is also a large scale “career day” for drivers, encouraging all new drivers to register with MyTeksi.
