I also do not like to drive on Sunday, knn go churches more than
I go temple, now I know a lot of church location liao. Sometime, if
take one of those single extremist christian lady, she will
keep harping to me about God until I blur blur, even give me phone
nos to call her when free. Alamak.
But brothers and sisters, I like to share my worry here with all
of you, it is regarding about foreigner taking over as
taxi.drivers, as we start to evade driving this and that, and pax,
hotels and many places start to makes noises to the authority, then
we can be in a lose lose case if LTA decided that due to the aging
population of TDs, they need to inject more new young blood, train
up a group of foreigner, then, we will be history.
The other day, i pick up a professor at NTU, he majored in
social economy studies, while chatting, I told him our new
president said that we can work until 75yo, I was expecting a big
laugh from him, but instead, he said, if look at it carefully, the
govt still want singaporeans to be TD, that is why they or your
current new president dare to put that remark in the press. By
extend the age of TD on the road does not imply you need to work to
that age, you can opts retire, like many here said, 53yo go viet,
45yo retired, or 60 can stop already, but the option for you to
drive is still open, and there are many who will drive beyong that
60yo percentile, given an extension of Taxis mean giving
Singaporean TD a mandate that Taxis driving is still very much a
flavour of what singapore govt want it to be. Sometime, we only see
one side of the picture, but professor can somehow, see a far
better picture.
