Daily Briefing: Gojek ties-up with taxi operator Trans-Cab; MassMutual Ventures led funding round of Hong Kong-based KaaS server Lynk

And Amazon is recruiting tech and business/finance interns.

From CNA:

Gojek users here will now have access to a larger pool of vehicles when booking a ride, as the Indonesian ride-hailing firm announced a partnership with taxi operator Trans-Cab. The deal was announced at an event marking the first anniversary of Gojek’s commercial operations.

Gojek said that the move aims to reduce waiting times for passengers as well as allow Trans-Cab drivers to enjoy the same benefits as Gojek’s private-hire car drivers, which include insurance and medical coverage.

This comes after Gojek had partnered with Trans-Leasing - Trans-Cab’s vehicle rental arm - in May this year. Trans-Cab is Singapore’s second-largest taxi operator, with a fleet of 2,954 taxis as of September according to figures from the Land Transport Authority.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up 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. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
