As I was taking a SMRT cab this morning, the cabby brought up the topic of the fare increment.
Cabby: You take cab to work everyday ah?
Me: Errrr......Not everyday la. (trying to recall if he got send me b4..)
Cabby: Coming 17th, cab fare going to increase liao ah, up by 35%!
Me: Only for peak period right?
Cabby: No, for the whole day! It's all the fault of ComXXXXDeXXXX la! Wanna increase; all cabbies can change job liao! 10cents up to 20cents, overall fare up by another 35%, no one will wanna take cab le! Now already difficult to get passenger, les say after the increase...
Me: Cab fare will be 1.35times of the fare stated in meter for the whole day????
Cabby: Ya!
Me (in my mind): How could it be...Should not be possible mah...
