1st in the World

Fuel Surcharge for Taxi.
Every heard of it before?
Well, starting from this Thursday, 17 July, majority of the taxi in Singapore will be charge 30 cents for fuel surcharge.

Ok... let see.
If you take the taxi during normal hours (off peak), you have to pay fare + fuel surcharge.

If you take the taxi during peak hours, you have to pay:
Fare
35% peak hour surcharge
ERP
30 cents fuel surcharge

Aiyah... forget it lah.
Can't even bother to vent already.
What's the use?
If you are staying in Singapore, you have to live with it or get out.

More ERP Gantries are going up and by the end of 2008. I think this has totally gone out of hand. But who are we to complains or make any comments.
Someone post this on a forum I am in. It's hillarious. Why laughing at it is all we can do isn't it?
