Affordable Fares ?? My Arse ...

** Right click , Save as Jpeg , to read the article . I still cant figure out the thumbnail thingy.**


Public Transport Council tells us They DIVIDE THE TOTAL FARE REVENUE by the number of Trips Singaporeans make , to get the AVERAGE BUS & RAIL FARE we currently Pay for , Then use something called the PURCHASING POWER PARITY to adjust their fares according ...

As highlighted in the grey box , They stated Singaporeans average bus fare was $0.66 , MRT fare was $0.94 ... after adjustments , STILL $0.66 & $0.94 ..... while other countries had their fare hikes ..


$0.66 average fare ?? MY ARSE ... Like hell we commuters pay only $0.66 for bus rides .. for 2 bus-stops , they already charge $0.60 !! And I really dont see Commuters all alighting after 2 stops only .. So they pay MORE !! I do not believe that Singaporeans Pay $0.66 average bus fare only ...

And MRT rides cheapest fare ( single use ) is $0.80 already ?? and We have Got poor singaporeans travelling from Pasir Ris to Redhill , juz to work ...( My colleagues lor .. many of them East to West to work ... ) and YOU TELL ME $0.94 average ??Yeah Right .. its so unbelievable ...

Granted the Average fares are $0.66 & $0.94 ... After adjustment , you tell me its the same price ?? So you telling me you doing charity by not having any actual adjustments ??

I am convinced that Fuel price hikes will give them a legitimate reason to UP prices ... BUT RECENTLY OIL PRICES DROP !!! DiD we see the cabs & buses reducing charges ??

Pay Lah Pay Lah !!!
