Was reading through; hmmm dosen't seem to state of a "trial" would be started out. Guess their policies are "Implement Now; Problem Solving As We Go".

Must take the bitter medicine , while times are still good. Later times turn bad, ask public to take bitter medicine; more jialat.

 

next move will be to raise the GST to 10%, store up more money for the next few years to get mmore increment and bonus.

They should not call themselves public transport anymore. Not public friendly at all, more concern abt profit. Keep posting record profit annually n at the same time kpkb abt increasing overhead. [thumbsdown][thumbsdown][thumbsdown]

Not when the bus is damn lok..... bus driver on aircon so low like suffocating. WTH for the increase for? If they want to increase, please also consider the bus frequency etc etc. U increase while giving such service is quite BS.

 

Now SG is part by part cutting our flesh. [hur]

 

What's going to be up next? Bus la... ERP... Power Supply... Food... Petrol....

 

back to the early days where riots start. [bigcry]

disgusting...

 

i'd rather continue driving. sure, the jams will get worse, petrol more ex. but the pubic tpt more and more crowded, not any faster, and if on the bus, also kena jam.

 

on mrt just as bad. just that the MRT is fairly consistent unlike bus [dead]

What public transport?

 

They should combine the SBS, TIBS back and rename the new company into Payment Action Bus Service.

 

MRT change to Payment Rapid Transit.

 

Their new motto should be: "We'll take you for a ride." [thumbsdown][thumbsdown][thumbsdown]

 

Pui!

that's why i said i'm not surprised.. they can even say that the are 'postponing' the increase.. walan.. they should ask themselves in the first place, what is the meaning of public transport? (remember hdb flat?)

zeng hu is suppose subsidise any cost for the public masses.. that's how they can encourage people to give up their cars if costs of taking pubic transport also go up, not to mention also the inconveniences and their ride condition? hur.gif
