I think there is recently a lot of out pour of concern in the media in the past week about the plight of the Taxi Driver... they cant made end meet..cant pay rental ... company taking legal action ..... too many taxi.garment not doing anything etc etc...
But we all know the state of economy is back and alot are jobless ...the garment is not doing anything except collecting tax per taxi $6100 per year and filling up the coffer and at the same time reduce teh umemployment rate ...kill two bird with one stone!!

$2.50 ? Not true la .
But it's b.l.o.o.d.y true taxi too many nowadays .
Only a bit busy from morning 7.30am til 9am , the rest is luck nowadays .
Then after 5 pm , when working people starts going home , then a bit busy .
Midnight die !
Nowadays half shift like working from 6am til change shift 5pm , very difficult . Must work longer hours then can survive a decent living .
Drivers on half shift generally earns averagely nett pay $70-$90 everyday .
That work out ..... one off day a week , $70 x 26 days = $1820 , where got $2.50 an hour ?

I did say nett ! Nett as in minus every expenses . And that's a very low average .
