Brother, whenever there is a new food stall or kopitiam open
near yr place, many will tends to patronise, look look, see see, if
good, will continue to patronise, if not, just walk away and visit
your usual food centre and life goes on.
Taking this approach, Pte apps such as Uberx and Grabcar are the
latest new kid in town, meaning, just open. So, many people will
try, some find it good, some find it no good, some never even want
to try it out, or some dunno how to try on it.
Therefore, in the recent survey, tia kong 53% believe that these
apps need to be regulated, 20% never use them, 10% dunno what it
is, and about 17% said they are good, should not regulate it.
Coming back to TD, today, nite drivers are taking less due to
pte apps, day one do not affect much, because apps hv an advantage
of no midnite and call charges. Press only, can get already, so
efficiency and effectives while our nite drivers are still
interviewing those at the Q.
So, at the end of the day, intake of TDs will surely be
affected, that resulted in many thrown keys and companies
scrambling to come out with newer and newer pattern to recruit
drivers and at the same time, retain drivers.
Govt on the other hand, are reluctant to regulate pte apps due
to it freelance nature, just like tuition teachers, freelance
photographer, freelance marine workers, freelance nude model and
even freelance pros..so why should they regulate a pte freelance
transport. And anything being regulate will involve cost and
enforcement, which LTA is literally speaking, short
handed and short sighted
i like your approach. but i can't deny the fact that they do
have a part in under cut our passengers.
no booking fees, no midnight charge, some suckers once addicted
to such lower fares, use CC to pay, will stick to it, thus we are
really powerless, but to stick onto our high cost and fixed fare
structure
