yoo hoo!!!
just came across some really funny comments in yahoo news forum.
it's some feedbacks on the new changes in bus fares.
someone posted this:
"What nonsense is this. The bus companies are always well protected. When they did not meet schedule they were fined $100. This is less than an executive lunch. When an individual commits a traffic offence he is fined more than that. People keep quiet but they are not stupid. Now, what is this trying to win votes with 2.5%. This on the max fare of say $1.60 is 4 cents.
Wow,even beggars throw away 5 cent coins."
Couldnt stand the last part in italic. what's with Singaporeans and their sacarsm nowadays. but i gotta admit it got me laughing quite a bit. lots more of such sacarsm in the rest of the threads. hahaha.
then it got me thinking. are singaporeans just too unappreciative or are they stating the facts. seriously i agree with some of their views like changes only come about during specific periods. you know what i'm referring to, and whether the changes really benefit us in the long run. does it benefit singapores of all income groups? moreover, with commoners already pointing out the fundamental issues to solve (increase bus frequency,reduce waiting time and peak hour squeeze, and bus fare by a higher percentage coz 2.5% is really negligible -___-), why are they just skirting around the main issues and not acting on it?
does your comments on forums even get noticed? perhaps only by people like me. since when do you see the authorities retracting their policies and adjustments? they are only informing us about it, we can discuss for all we want, but discussion is not equivalent to opinions/suggestions that will be considered at the end of the day.
then again, maybe we are just taught to always expect more and more and more.
