Outlook
The COVID-19 outbreak broke out in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and quickly spread
internationally despite efforts to contain it. How the outbreak will turn out is currently unclear and
a prolonged outbreak is anticipated. COVID-19 and measures to fight it will result in the
economic slowdown of affected countries. Our taxi, public transport and transport related
businesses are witnessing lower ridership and volumes as we face significant operational
challenges.
Notwithstanding the current uncertainties, the Group maintains its long-term focus on the
mobility strategy and continues to transform and build capabilities.
