memories so short, then it is our fault since we are so forgetful and tolerant of the pap government bad doings.

Re: In singapore, transport fares will only go up
I am glad that the transport fares are going up. As a shareholder of SMRT, SBS and ComfortDelgro, I can sleep better at night, knowing that the government is taking good care of us shareholders. I used some capital gains from the shares and the annual dividends to offset my transportation costs. If the average sinkie spent as much time doing their financial planning as they do cursing the good government at the coffeeshops, they wouldn't be that upset too.

Re: In singapore, transport fares will only go up
Classic case of privatising profits (salaries, bonuses and dividends) and socialising costs.
Raising fares 'amidst an environment of rising costs' is not going to make things any better for the people, is it?
Public transport companies should be providing a PUBLIC good. If you're operating at a loss, tough shit and suck it up.

Look, these PAP cronies don't have much time to reap it in. Comes 2016, the PAP will be gone and the cronies have to run road. Two years to squeeze every drop of blood it can get from sinkees.
