Surprise Quote by Lemon Lim

[Watwheels]

You see it on TV too. It's the typical "Good Cop" & "Bad Cop" thing. Those you had mentioned had to play the "Bad Cop" and after that "Good Cop" will come save the day giving reliefs and rebates.

 

Those simple minded ppl will come praise the "Good Cop" cos he's giving a lot to the ppl. The "Bad Cops" will chut pattern and take back what is given. LPPL.

Watch CNA just now, our Lemon Lim says that oil price does not link with the fare hike, so there is no justification for the fare to come down amid oil price deflation.

 

I remembered the idiotic bus companies cited the oil price increase as the reason for the fare hike....

 

Worse Mr Lemon Lim says the bus companies need 500-600million profit per yr till 2010 as reserves to replace their buses...Anyway those buses they bring in also cannot make it, buy china bus lah since their Great leader like to carry china balls

 

Simple, bus companies want to build reserves means bus fares going up soon. Read between the lines, bro.

shoe cannot use $$$ to buy, throw sxxt at him

The amount of revenue collected from COE over these years is enormous.

 

This money should be channeled to subsidize public transport. Public transport should be almost free.

 

In Austin (Texas), a US$1 daily bus card allows the passenger to take unlimited bus rides within a single day. BTW, US doesn't collect money from COE.

 

NS men kena call back during mobilisation exercise should be given free travel on public transports like buses and trains, why don't implement this and keep talking ****?

He's trying to build up two expensive luxury bus companies which the common people cannot afford.

Should ask him, "does he want his seat back?" "does he want a revolution?"

[Porche]

Really BOILING when hearing the news

 

I think someone should asked this lemon the "correct" question. This lemon is smart to confuse the peasants with answer of statistic number and GST.

 

Ask him 1 simple question

 

"Why does the transport company need so much profit during the inflation ???"

 

figures....than look at the official profit of SMRT

Isn't the transport committee supposed to be neutral and no need to worry abt building reserves in transport companies ?
