9 years ago, we came up with an idea to introduce an Uber-like service to the Maldives using motorcycles. We identified the problem we wanted to solve: vehicle congestion, while also giving people a chance to earn a living since they already own motorcycles. We called it Ride Maldives. We met @em_saeed and the ministry to demo the app and seek endorsement, given that the service was ready for launch with over 200 male and female drivers on our waitlist. The next day, the economic ministry released a press statement saying they were starting a new motorcycle taxi service and that companies could apply after a new regulation. We were told to apply. Transport took almost a year to draft the regulation. They took our base idea but stripped out all the safety measures we had put in place. Despite multiple attempts, they didn’t even want to meet us or get our feedback before gazetting the regulation and opening it up for services. Since it was already released, despite all our efforts to update it so we could provide a safe service to the public, the transport ministry denied it. So we decided to halt the project completely. A few months later, a company started the motorcycle service and then stopped for whatever reason. We were later asked to come to the transport ministry for a discussion, and they assured us they would change everything to fit our needs. By then, it was too late, we had already moved on to our next project: LottieFiles. Bottom line: our idea was to introduce an Uber-like motorcycle service, while the transport/economic ministries were still learning about the concept of motorcycle taxis from Thailand.
