PAP wins liao leh..this might also mean that pple
are happy with UBER in Singapore, happy with
immigration, happy with more FTs, happy with high cost of living,
and from a taxi drivers perspectives, happy with the high rental
and happy driving as a taxi driver in Singapore….So, u think they
will ban Uber here. The answer will be please see..
Mr. Tan ku ku
I spoke to my taxi customers and found out from them that during
peak hours they also attempted to call Uber but could not get them
to come (probably due also to high demand and Uber not serving
neighbourhood districts).
My personal opinion is new citizens gave PAP a boost of more
than 3% based on 20,000 new citizens per year so the result
actually shows PAP improved 10% from 60% to 66% (10%) and not to
69%. This 10% probably is due to cost of housings only rising
by less than 5% over the last 4 years instead of the outrageously
high increase from 2006 to 2011 so PAP claimed back the votes from
the younger voters and got back to their 2006 level (based on 66%
not 69% average performance).
As a not too old taxi driver, I am not happy with high rental
but I know the super lao jiaos are happy with having to pay old
rates.
Ban Uber depends on whether taxi drivers protest and whether
consumers like it or not and whether it creates more problems or
solve the shortage of taxis problems during peak hours and who the
head of LTA is and who the new Transport Minister is.
