Getting really irritated with every damn car and bike vrooming on the streets as if they are part of the F1 race. Maybe the marketing got to them, but just cos you speed at Marina Bay does not make you a race car driver; just an irritant.
Noticed that ads in trains have drastically dropped. Previously, every little space above the seats (including window panels) were plastered with something. But now, most of these panels are empty except for the ones with a map of the train network. What happened? With that loss in advertising revenue, trains companies need to raise fares to keep them going (or profitable in Sg’s case)?
There is a taxi surcharge for F1 areas - $5. Stop getting on my nerves. You still won’t be able to get cabs anyway, and there will be even less cabs elsewhere. Instead of managing demand by increasing supply, you increase prices. Sadly, customers and cab drivers are affected by booms and recessions, but the ‘competitive’ cab companies never make a loss!
