Sure, that is alway the norm of Singapore, let the thing be, in
time it will fade away, who will be mentioning Selamat now?
However, I still firmly believe that those in their 30s, if got
a chance to work outside instead of taxi, take the jobs, those in
their 40s, who are either in it or no more chance to get a well
paid job (taken by foreign and also due to age), then drive on,
work hard and smart. And for those in 50s like me and some ah kongs
here, whereby our childrens also grew up, married and bear our
grandchildrens, enjoy Taxi driving while it last. The youngs
today driving is unlike our time, we can survive in those day due
to lower cost of living, less cabs, and cheaper fuel with years of
booming economy from 70s into late 90s,
Second to what komade mention, tried grabbing jobs outside but with
the influx of highly educated yao gui graduates and FTs, the
starting wages is getting really miserable.
Those born in the 70s, early 80s last time got poly diploma sud
liao, degree si beh sud liao... Today degree? whats that? can eat a
not? how to survive like that?
