Grab Singapore has appointed incumbent Member of Parliament Pei Ling Tin as its Director of Public Affairs & Policy. 

In a LinkedIn post, Tin announced that her roles will be “distinct” amidst questions of conflict of interest.  

“There is a clear and mutual understanding that my role as a Parliamentarian is distinct from my role at Grab. The company has established clear rules of engagement to ensure that any possible conflict of interest will be properly declared and avoided,” Tin said.

Moreover, the PAP has a published set of Rules of Prudence, and mechanisms in place for declarations of interest and the avoidance of conflicting interests.

“I am absolutely clear that when I am discharging my duties in my capacity as a Member of Parliament, my constituents and Singapore come first,” she said.

“When I am working on behalf of Grab, I will have to ensure that Grab’s interests are safeguarded.”

She also assured that she will remain transparent.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
