the easiest way to convince yourself to believe is you go work in the bus company, either SMRT or SBS Transit[/quote]If it is a company, it operates like a normal company. Nothing fanciful. Unless it doesn't operate like a normal company.. :evil:
Advertisements on buses goes to who har? Under a separate entity for profit is it? If the heart is set out to keep fares from rising, I do not believe there can be no other way than to cut wages.concern2:
[quote=\"Joule\"]well its either wages go up and fares go up
or wages go up and fares stay the same and management gets a pay cut/ pay stagnate
but we're living in the real world
so it's wages go up and fares go up -
hallo
I was just paraphrasing our PM. in the same way…
social spending go up, so tax must go up lor…

Is not whether you can or cannot, is whether you want or dont want -

Is not whether you can or cannot, is whether you want or dont want
everything also want, just not willing to pay -
Workers in essential services are not encouraged to go on strike. Imagine doctors, teachers etc follow suit...
If pay is an issue, then go work in another company

You guys remember the fable of the Dutch boy who found a leak in the dike? He stuck his finger into the hole to prevent the gap from getting bigger and saved holland from flooding. In some ways I'm reminded of this story when I read the news.
If we allow ourselves to be bullied even in our own country, then no need to talk about competing regionally or globally liao. Just pack and go home (wait, we're oredi home :censored: ).
