Hmm..... their latest news is that their profits have been rising.
So.... what will be their excuse this time?

SMRT should be applying for individual protection orders for their senior management one of these days to stave off the rioting masses out for their blood...

i wonder if there are any of the lowly paid guards wanna protect them. -
Woohoo.
Bigger year end bonuses for the bosses.
And all they had to do was apply for fare increases.
Talk about a simple job.

Why bother about excuses?Even if they came up with one half baked crap of an excuse, fares will still be increased.
Really.

Applying for fare hike at a time there's high inflation and economic slowdown.
How apt.

Remind me of ABBA "Money Money Money"
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world -

The last SBS fare hike, I wrote a complaint letter on a rude bus driver, using the fare hike as a basis not to condone such behaviours
Did the same to a Comfort cab driver last time too when they raised the taxi fare
. Then recently got one more bad driver... But since I was in a happy mood as I'm going to graduate, I let him off. -

I know that whatever excuse they come up with, it will still be full of sh*t.I just want to know what the extent of the bullsh*t will be.

I think a tricycle will be better or depend on horse and carriage. Back to the past
Ya...everythings goes up. I used to buy a piece of black forest cake at 2.50 and now it has risen to 3.50!!! 2.00 laksa has gone up to 3.00. Coffee from 0.70cent gone up to 0.90cent.
Gosh! anybody can name more?
