SMRT should be applying for individual protection orders for their senior management one of these days to stave off the rioting masses out for their blood...

Woohoo.

Bigger year end bonuses for the bosses.

And all they had to do was apply for fare increases.

Talk about a simple job.

We really need a professional fulltime historian to keep track of all these countless fare hikes. Lest people forget. Really absent minded poreans. sigh.

Why bother about excuses?

Even if they came up with one half baked crap of an excuse, fares will still be increased.

Really.

Applying for fare hike at a time there's high inflation and economic slowdown.

How apt.
