Hey Qpicanto, maybe you should check if the person involved owns transportation shares or is one of the director on board. If yes, what do you think ?Originally posted by qpicanto:GPC chairman for Transport also MP from ruling party in a walk-over constituency, said : "it is reasonable" after the announcement of fare hike.
Rather shocked by his comment though, how would you expect PTC to react and execise it full regulatory power when a MP has no qualm in supporting a public transport fare hike when it has a healthy reserves, it is still making profits at the current fares and on top of it all - lower cost of operations as a result of lower CPF contribution to staff and lower oil price etc..
PTC should have throw out the fare hike proposal and instead DEMAND for a fare cut !
It pissed me off that the lower income group is forced to pay higher fares because there is "no extenuating factor" not to increase ! Why should they already hit hard globalisation bear the brunt in every fare hikes It is so unfair.Originally posted by miserable:Hey Qpicanto, maybe you should check if the person involved owns transportation shares or is one of the director on board.

Qpicanto, I totally agree with this. It seems that many of the elites are living in a world of their own,they have no empathy of those behind them. With the rising cost in basic necessities, consumption tax. I really wonder how the majority of us can live on it without having any impact in our life.
