China ride giant Didi says to resume new user registration

BEIJING (Reuters) - China's ride hailing giant Didi Global said in a statement on Monday that it would be allowed to resume new user registration, after a more than year-long ban that curbed its growth.

It would take effective measures to ensure platform safety and data security, and safeguard national cyberspace security, Didi added in the statement.
