Fair comparison with 4 cities?
Why is it that a comparison is made with fares in 4 cities, but there is no comparison as to the proportion of fares expenditure to income, and wage levels?
Why is it that the fares comparison with the 4 cities on a trip basis, do not take into account that all these cities have monthly or longer passes which reduce per trip travel costs substantially?
Since there was also a comparison that 2 of the cities’ fare increase in the last 5 years were higher than Singapore’s, does it mean that the other 2 cities were less than Singapore’s? – Failure to mention the obvious?
Why only choose to compare with these 4 cities – which are among the highest wage level countries in the world with minimum wages to compare with Singapore which has one of the lowest wage levels among developed countries and without a minimum wage?
