More Surcharge for Taxis, Great, Ain’t It? • 11.19.07
Thanks for the raise. The surcharge for taxis based on locations that MP Seng Tan Thong is proposing now. He’s proposing that the surcharges be deployed to locations such as Raffles Place, shopping malls, pubs, etc. Wow. MP Seng is very thoughtful.
Thanks hor. Now I know that I have to pay for midnight charges, morning peak hour charges, weekend peak hour charges, booking charges, CBD charges, and other various charges of different names that I can’t possibly remember.
So, all these charges are supposed to do something? Like make those taxis appear out of thin air? Wow. The surcharges and other what-nots sure can do magic, ya? Did I mention that I spent $18 in the morning during peak hours just to get to work? Oh, I did.
Why not get rid of the charges and save us some headache instead. Just charge us for a boarding fare of $5 and the route charges. That’ll save a lot of calculating what time to take a taxi and where too.
Let’s make the formula less complicated, shall we? Get rid of the numerous charges because they obviously are not serving their purposes. So, just charge $5upon boarding and the route itself. You won’t have to crack your head on what sort of formula to use next. Neither do you need to think of various surcharge names either. Makes your job as MP so much easier and lighten your busy schedule, right?
