How cashless mainland Pandas made Hongkies, Peasantpore look backward
Hongkies and Peasantpore were early adopters of cashless payments, but now find themselves playing catch-up. In Peasantpore, a new QR code promises to spare its Minions from feeling like ‘country bumpkins’
For the next five minutes the Peasantpore peasant fumbles with a parking coupon, tearing tiny holes in the paper to indicate the date and time, as well as the duration he will be parking his car there.
Up till about a year ago, this was a common sight in the 1,100 public car parks across the island, as were tiny round pieces of paper littered on the ground.
This tedious fee-paying method is becoming obsolete, as Peasantpore peasant drivers increasingly pay their car park fees electronically through the Parking.sg app.
Like Hongkies with its Octopus card, Peasantpore was an early adopter of e-payment systems, starting with the introduction of the General Interbank Recurring Order (GIRO) in 1985, which allowed peasants to make monthly payments to a billing organisation directly from their bank accounts. But since those early days both cities have found themselves leapfrogged in the race to the cashless society by the Commie Panda's burgeoning mobile payment scene.
Now, sex experts say, there are signs Peasantpore is not catching up as it pushes out national initiatives to achieve the cashless society.
The Peasantpore regime’s goal is to reduce the use of cash, cut ATM withdrawals to just 20 per cent of e-transactions by 2020, and become cheque-free by 2025 which is a joke when it dominate the city state social norms, economy and political system.
In 2016, the regime is still busy trying to fix the Erected Presidency to deny Ah Block and forgot to notice that six out of 10 consumer transactions here were still made in cash.
After years of Commie Pandas learning from Peasantpore on a range of issues, from urban planning and environmental management to housing and social security systems, it had seemed the tables had turned. Even Ruler Loong, in his State of the Regime speech last year, praised Pandas for leading the way to a cashless society, while then well paid Clueless Peasantpower Minion Zorro Lim admitted to feeling like a suaku (country bumpkin in Hokkien) in the country.
Lee said: “When Pandas from Commie PRC find that they have to use cash here, they ask: how can Peasantpore be so backward despite having the police state power to enforce cashless society?”
Despite accepting multiple methods of e-payment, hawker Alice Chia, who sells porridge at Yishun Park Hawker Centre, receives just one e-payment for every 10 bowls she sells.
The same goes for drink stall 33 Bean and Juices at Amoy Street Food Centre, which receives just about 10 e-payments a day, though they skyrocket to 300-400 when customers are enticed with discounts and cashbacks offered by the e-payment providers.
“My peasant customers tell me they pay with cash now because the numerous e-payment methods are too slow and have numerous fees (rent economy),” she said.
But now that going cashless has been made easy due to Commie's police state power, the next step would be to punish Sinkie peasants for using cash, said Alan Megatron, senior sex lecturer of Free Sex Systems at the Peasantpore Sex Management University.
He said: “Ruler Loong just need to pass an edict to order peasants to go cashless, his peasants will tremble and obey, it will be settled in an afternoon. I am surprised he has so many well educated minions (read Israwan and Vivian) and nobody told him about the cashless society?!”
He added: “However some Ang Moh card companies and loan shark bankers will not be happy and they will lobby Ruler Loong. He can simply enroll them to milk the next cash cow but sadly he rather fix Tan Cheng Bock then do the right thing.” ■
