Again?......Haiz

Once again the Singaporean government has clamped down on things they do not want to hear. Or rather, things which hit too close. All the talk about listening to how the citizens feel, how to extend help to the citizens but now...... When CONSTRUCTIVE jibes (not even CRITICISMS) which are exactly how most Singaporeans feel comes along in a tabloid column, they clamped down on it and strike it off. Heck! We do not even have full time MPs or ministers, many of them still holding down various posts outside of their RESPONSIBILITIES to their CONSTITUENTS! AND WHY THE BLOODY HELL ARE THE PEOPLE WHO OKAY THE RAISE IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT FARES PEOPLE WHO DO NOT EVEN TAKE BLOODY PUBLIC TRANSPORT OR ONLY WHEN THEIR PRECIOUS CARS ARE IN SERVICING? Look at ComfortDelgro, SIA, SMRT and every other public transport company in Singapore. I understand that they have to maintain profits but the moment they lose abit of profit only, their immediate knee jerk reaction is to raise BLOODY PRICES! AND DO NOT EVEN SAY IT IS A WELL THOUGHT OUT REACTION BECAUSE IT IS NOT! If not why the bloody hell you think the pilots were making all the noise a couple of years ago?! Raise prices and cut their pay. Hey! They are humans too, they also have a family to feed! LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE ON THE GROUND FOR GOODNESS SAKE! Even the cabbies themselves feel that it is wrong to raise the commuters fares and that it would be more conducive for the taxi companies to reduce their rental fees. Will losing a couple of millions be so much out of the bloody TENS OF MILLIONS THAT YOU ARE MAKING?! The one at the losing end would be the cabbies as commuters will just shun them! But do these taxi companies care? HELL NO! They just have to sit back, rent out the taxis, make it look nice by providing subsidized fuel for the cabbies and laugh all the way to the bank! They do not care if the cabby has passengers all day or not! Why on earth are petrol prices rising? It is because we have China who is making rapid progress and thus need more fuel, which is understandable. However, we have the so called BIG BROTHER (BIG BULLY more like it), the great ally couple of hours due west of the Greenwich Meridian Line, hording fuel just so that their precious people can have fuel at the same bloody rate for their cars while the rest of the world suffers. BLOODY POLLUTERS! Maybe if they did not have such an itchy backside and poked their finger in everything, you think they will even be at the crosshairs of every single terrorist outfit out there?
