Uber is facing harsh regulatory actions from Thailand and Hong Kong, both of which are opposed to the company's UberX service. A court decision in Hong Kong has led to five UberX drivers being fined around $1,300 for using their vehicles for commercial activities.
Since the transportation service isn't on clear legal footing in Hong Kong, other people may not want to risk driving for UberX.
In Thailand, regulators are cracking down on services in Bangkok and Chiang Ma. Transport workers have been photographing drivers in Chiang Ma and alerting the authorities, and a police action in Bangkok led to 23 UberX drivers being arrested.
