Taxis in Singapore are phone charging friendly?

Froggy · Apr 28, 2015

Recently found out when taking a taxi in Tokyo that their taxis, not all but many, are phone charge friendly with two cables suitable for iPhone and Samsung type of USB connection.

Are there any Singapore taxis equip with this?

Also in February I was in a taxi in Shanghai it also has these cables

If/when Sg implements then expect there will be a charge (pun intended).

I am just asking a simple question, what expectation, anyway I rarely take taxi in Singapore, thanks to PAP our MRT and buses is so efficient, take taxi only if really necessary.

Nope there isn't.

But I think is a good.idea. Value added service.

Thanks to the PAP they've made using taxis more expensive particularly when you get them at the airport & at night. That's why I make sure to take earlier flights back to Spore, so that I can take the MRT instead of a taxi.

I'm so used to taking the MRT these days that I find very sayang paying like $30 or more depending of time between airport and Queenstown, small bags of course.

I normally take the cab when I am going to the airport but all that changed when on one trip I had difficulty getting a cab. As usual I had called for a taxi but instead of being put on a queue, the message I got was to call again. :eek:

Since then I now factor in the time required to take the MRT. Since I'm prepared early, I've decided to just take the train instead of the cab. With the circle line it's more convenient.

At Bangkok's airport I also take the train to the hotel because it avoids the traffic jams.

Half truth, MS. What you forgot to admit was you had (and enjoyed) rear charge by moustachioed cabbie, and discharged front job. And even got paid for the ride? Talk about fast and furious :p

Oops, I'd better get scarce or else kena diap by you (or your twin bro BS) :p
