段句

• The chinese government has formally legalized online car-hailing services, giving a boost to an industry that has operated in a grey area.

• Both groups welcomed the provisional rules, unveiled by the transport ministry yesterday, which Didi referred to as "the world's first nationwide online ride-booking regulations".

• Uber said the regulations sent "a clear message of support for ride-sharing and the benefits that it offers riders, drivers and cities".

• China was "a country has consistently shown itself to be forward-thinking when it comes to business innovation", the US group added.

• Car-hailing has been met with protests and bans in many countries, but Beijing has sought to co-opt the technology to promote economic growth.

• The car-hailing rules set a precedent for other industries in China -- such as finance and healthcare -- where regulators are considering how much disruption can be tolerated from fast-moving internet companies.
