MRT Breakdown!!!! But CEO busy playing mahjong??

This is the CEO of SMRT. She is from Penang, so same country la. [However she is now a Singaporean so that means she is fucking yours, not ours. So stop blaming Malaysia for her fucking mistakes. Who ask you to give her passport?] Nevertheless, I think she should just resign la. What is this "I will resign if it is necessary" bullshit?


This is what happened last night:




WHERE WAS SHE "PRACTICING THE ART OF MOVING PEOPLE" LAST NIGHT???

That's what Hum Yee wants to know. [The mahjong part is not true, I'm just guessing only since she's so fucking ugly]

Singapore Taxi is more fucked-up than NYC Cab

Just yesterday, the fucking blood-sucking Singapore Taxi company "changed the fare structure". See my earlier post: Comfort My Ass

Of course there are a lot of screaming and yelling, or khao peh khao boo going on.

What surprises me is that people actually accept a peak hour surcharge based on a percentage of the fare, which is 25% for the new structure. This means if your base fare is $20, you pay EXTRA $5 surcharge.

That I think is outrageous.

By comparison, New York which is notorious for expensive cab fare has reasonable surcharges. You know why? Because it is REGULATED!! Let's see below their cab fare structure:

"The meter is required to be engaged or "hired" when a taxicab is occupied by anyone in addition to the driver

Standard City Rate (Rate Code 1)
$2.50 upon entry
$0.40 for each additional unit

The unit fare is:
one-fifth of a mile, when the taxicab is traveling at 6 miles an hour or more; or
60 seconds when not in motion or traveling at less than 12 miles per hour.
The taximeter shall combine fractional measures of distance and time in accruing a unit of fare. Any combination of distance or time shall be computed by the taximeter in accordance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook 44.
The fare shall include pre-assessment of the unit currently being accrued; the amount due may therefore include a full unit charge for a final, fractional unit.
Night surcharge of $.50 after 8:00 PM & before 6:00 AM
Peak hour Weekday Surcharge of $1.00 Monday - Friday after 4:00 PM & before 8:00 PM
New York State Tax Surcharge of $.50 per ride."

And this is all REGULATED by NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC).

WHY ISN'T THERE A SIMILAR COMMISSION HERE IN SINGAPORE???

THAT'S WHAT HUM YEE WANTS TO KNOW.

Yeah, you can say, why take a cab? Buy a car and drive yourself la.

Nabeh, Hum Yee would like to tell you that he drives a car that is priced 5 times more expensive than a similar car in US.

So either way they fuck you up the ass. COCKSUCKERS!

Then you say, take public transport la!

You know why I don't? Because I don't want end up sitting beside you, you stinko fucker!

Now THIS you cannot blame it on FT.

I've been living in this country for the last 5 years.

Yes, I'm what they called FT, "Foreign Talent", a foreigner living and working in Singapore. Just like millions of people in the human history who move from one location to another, I was born in one place and now live in another.

Nothing very interesting or exceptional, right? Wrong! From a Uniquely Fucking Singaporean perspective, I am less of a human being than them locals.

The FT is supposed to come here and, get this, 'DO THE JOB THAT WE DON'T WANT TO DO." This means work such as cleaning the toilet, or digging the road or worse, get your ass fucked by some really ugly gay ah neh Singaporean for $50.00!!!!

It's like, "we are special, all these things are beneath us."

But "we got fucking Singapore Dollars, it's real big deal." "All you fucking FTs coming here to work are less than human and must get down on your fucking knees and pray to our money."

What they do not fucking tell you is that FT provide a service which brings the business cost down and as a result keep INFLATION DOWN.  That allows them to have their fucking disposable income to roam the shopping complex and stuff their fucking face with low quality sushi every weekend.

But no, every fucking thing and every fucking problem they have, they blame it on FT like me. Eh, I fucking pay my GST just like you do, ok?

In that light, I was glad to see the piece of news below. For non-Singaporean readers of this blog, taxis can ONLY be operated by Singaporean citizens.

Taxi fare is going up!!!!! I like to see how you morons are going to blame THIS on FTs.

And I laugh my ass off when I read one of the locals complaining:

"How does this restructuring address the problem of lazy cab drivers camping in corners like behind ORQ waiting for people to call for a cab, and then appearing out of nowhere to collect the extra fees? As many an expat has said before while waiting for a taxi in the queue: Singaporean cabbies are really spoiled! And many refuse to pick up passengers even though it's not shift change hour; this happens even at taxi stands in the CBD area with long queues. They're just waiting for someone to pick up the phone to dial for a cab because there's extra money! As if reducing booking fees by 20 cents will make a difference."

ComfortDelGro revises taxi fare structure from Monday
SINGAPORE - ComfortDelGro, the largest taxi operator here, said today it would revise its taxi fare structure from 6am, next Monday.

Flag down fares will also go up by 20 cents across its ComfortDelGro's fleet of 15,600 cabs here, while distance fares will be increased by 2 cents. Advance booking fees will also be increased by $8 to encourage more drivers to accept such bookings. The S$3 city area surcharge, which is currently in effect between 5pm and midnight from Monday to Saturday, will be extended to included Sundays and Public Holidays as well.

Peak period surcharge, meanwhile, will be reduced from the current 35 per cent to 25 per cent of the metered fare. It will, however, be extended to Sundays and Public Holidays.

Booking fees will also come down from the current S$3.50 during peak periods and S$2.50 at all other times, to S$3.30 during peak periods and S$2.30 at all other times.

The last taxi fare revision exercise was conducted in December 2007, and ComfortDelgro says it is revising its taxi fare structure "to better match supply with the ever-growing demand for taxi services in Singapore". ComfortDelGro operates some 15,600 taxis of the 26,700 taxis on the roads here.

Thanksgiving

Hum Yee had the nicest TG dinner ever.

My wife has never cooked dinner and this is the first time. The effort that she puts in is quite enormous for her standard.

Find the recipe, Shop for the grocery, cook the dinner - all by herself.

That tells me something. The luuuvvvvv is still strong.

I'm super touched.

THIS IS FUCKING SINGAPORE FOR YOU....

Man gives sick parents $2,000 cheque, chases them out of flat


They quarrelled over a dirty toilet and household chores, before son demanded they leave the flat and called the police. -

SINGAPORE - An elderly couple were shocked when their son demanded they move out of the flat they shared, over a dirty toilet and household chores.

According to Wanbao, he also handed them a $2,000 cheque after the couple asked him to return the $20,000 they had loaned to him, on condition that they no longer return to the flat.

The domestic quarrel was triggered because their son, 33, an army personnel, was unhappy that the toilet which his parents use had become 'dirty and smelly'.

The fight erupted yesterday in a flat in Woodlands block 769, at around 10.30am. The bickering lasted six hours, during which the son called the police.

According to the mother, Mrs Fu, 55, both she and her husband, 62, suffer from high blood pressure, and she also has diabetes.

Her son had asked them to clean the house and help with chores, but Mrs Fu says she has rheumatism, and is unable to do much.

Mr Fu was involved in an accident a few years ago and had difficulty walking, which makes doing household chores almost impossible, says Mrs Fu.

The couple, along with their youngest son, 27, had moved in with the eldest son a year ago, to help look after his two young daughters.

He had just gotten a divorce then and needed help to care for them, but has since remarried.

Even then, said Mrs Fu, they were asked to pay $1,000 a month in 'rent'.

and someone I know [we don't want to mention names la] would do the same too.
