JAKARTA -- Google said on Monday it has invested in Indonesia's Go-Jek, adding firepower for the startup in its battle against ride-hailing rivals Uber and Grab.
The move marks Google's first major investment in an Indonesian startup. The announcement, which confirmed earlier media reports, is also the latest addition to Go-Jek's list of high-profile investors that already include Tencent Holdings, JD.com, investment firms KKR and Warburg Pincus.
