cos eventually it would be based on cummulative fare stages travelledonly thing I wonder is how are they going to tabulate trunk/ MRT - feeder/ JIS/ Express/ FFW/ CT issue

those who make transfer end up get fare redux -
Stats in the news said that
41% will see their transport costs lowered/no change
23% will see their costs going up by $10/year
36% will see their costs going up by $12/yearFrom my own calculations this is the net gain/loss per pax
1 trip: up 4 cents
2 trips: down 7 cents
3 trips: down 24 cents
4 trips: down 37 centsI havent factored Fare Cap or train trips. Technically speaking it would be the same. I tested this using an all bus trip.

that's the general idea isn't it, make more money at the expense of commuters. -
What the fark PTC is capable of doing besides giving the green light for fare hike?

i juz give a simple example, sv36 frm Maryland pk bus stop to Suntec 8mins, sv196 fr same bus stop 15mins, wic 1 faster? for tfr, worse, including waiting time 20-21mins of journey in wic sv36 would suffice, PTC is nt using their brains, they juz wan 2 squeeze the daylights out of us!
