The first time you add a website to your home screen, it installs the website's service worker. You have to use the Internet for that, just as you have to use the Internet to download an application from Apple's App Store.
So the service worker installs the entire Grab site to you phone? Grab handles food delivery, grocery delivery, package delivery, ride sharing, financial services, etc.. That seem extremely inefficient to load every single function to your phone just because you visited their website. Also I would imagine that working for Grab requires different functions than consumers. But according to you, every time someone visits Grab, it should install all these functions to your browser. I doubt it.
And I'm curious about what the blockers for even a partial PWA implementation have been during each of these 12 years.
Maybe you should research that before suggesting a solution that has been available for 12 years but not used. But let's step back. If you look at all the companies in the US that do food delivery like Grab: Doordash, Uber Eats, Instacart, Favor, Grubhub, Postmates, etc. They ALL use native apps. All of them. Maybe you should ask these companies why they don't use PWAs.
I don't see where I "assume[d] to know better than Grab".
You suggested a solution that Grab, Doordash, Uber Eats, Instacart, Favor, Grubhub, Postmates, etc. do not use. I pointed out maybe these companies know way more about their needs and solutions than you. Do you accept that?
I am tired if this anti china war mongering,
Where are you seeing anti-china war mongering? I haven't seen it.
emissions were unchanged from a year earlier in the third quarter of 2025, thanks in part to declining emissions in the travel, cement and steel industries.

Shocking how that finally got prioritized for the nation. And quick.
"Africa" is a continent, not a nation, and the very first sentence of the summary says this is "after more than a decade of planning."
The summary says merchant fees will reduce "by an average of 0.1% over several years" so I'd say the chances of this making anything cheaper at point of sale is on par with the sun going supernova in the next several minutes.
