You are the biggest idiot I have encountered so far.
Well said. I have added to your points.
Well said and I have just added zero to your points.
Any diff if they are known as taxi captain? Waiting for an NTUC leader to suggest this.
So $5900 per month is gross or nett?
Need to work how many hours?
Enlighten us with a simple breakdown can?
Govt can keep such detail data on taxi drivers, yet it can't tell us how many of these taxi driver were former PMET.
Here are the facts for one-shift relief driver :
Nett takings(after minusing daily rental and diesel) is an average $130 a day. If drive 6 days a week, total nett takings per month is $3,400. However, after driving 5 years, medical ailments all sprout up.:o

Single shift is 12 hrs so drive full 12hrs?
That's only 10 bucks an hour.....still better than work in macdonalds I must say
There are many rests (smoke break, toilet break, lunch break, kopi break, wash car etc) along the way. If not too many breaks, taxi driver can generally earn that amount stated.
To be fair, many taxi drivers rent out their taxis to other drivers for the night shift or shifts when they are resting. The part time driver does pay some money to the principal driver, so the $150 a day is probably prorated among 2 drivers. But its still wayang when he gives the gross numbers without knowing what the cost is.
The fact is earning 3 to 4K a month without
1) CPF contribution from both you and employer
2) no medical coverage just the minute sum to your own CPF medisave which will be locked up anyway.
3) all other benefits which I cannot list out...
and having to work long hours, facing the risk of accidents and 'violent passengers' beside others is equal to earning just $2k per month ( at present cost of living) in total with no further amount set for retirement.
The worst part is ppl like taxi drivers have very poor retirement prospects and if they are retired and yet do not have enough put aside for retirement , they are getting "NOWHERE in life by carrying on to drive pass their retirement age.
All in all, PAP will not paint a true picture of what sort of life these ppl are facing and the worse part is, they will ignore those that can no longer work or still struggling to work as taxi drivers.

Where is this place? In Singapore?
What's the message that the Ministar is trying to tell sinkees? That taxi driving is a lucrative career?
Here is a government that is totally bankrupt of ideas. PAP asks sinkees not to go to universities. Then to consider career as hawkers and taxi drivers. And it wants sinkapore to be a high value economy.
So, the grand plan of the PAP is to make sinkees become hawkers and taxi drivers and the good paying jobs going to foreigners! Damn the PAP.
