Doing homework based on SBS
-
There are some question that I need from fellow passengers to complete this homework, please help.
1) Now the earth is facing energy crisis, if the bus fare increase because of rising fuel price, is that fair? Why and why not?
2)do you think that some buses patronise the area too little time? Does that affect you in your daily life? What do you think that can improve that?
Thanks for the help.

1) I agree that the increase of bus fares due to rising fuel prices is fair to the extend that the operators SBS Transit and SMRT Buses needs to keep the company's profits and payout to shareholders running. In addition, they also need to ensure that their workers are paid a decent salary despite the fuel price increase. However, I do not agree to the price increase to the extend that the service sometimes deprove. Service standards must improve with the fare hike, only then it's fair. -

Seriously..
No matter how good the freq is, ppl will still be unhappy with the bus co.
i guess, ppl will only start to stop having those kind of unhappiness when buses are arriving at 1min freq. -
People need to manage their expectations better.
