SINGAPORE -- Southeast Asia's largest ride-hailing group plans to take its mobile payments service into Cambodia and Myanmar as it expands its range of businesses throughout ASEAN countries, according to a senior executive.

Reuben Lai, senior managing director of the Singapore-based company's financial arm, identified the two countries as next on the list. Grab's ride-hailing app is already available in these markets, as well as six other ASEAN countries.
