riding the sg public transportation system is extremely easy and convenient with the
ez-link card. there's no practical need to look at the fare structure and poster explaining the various categories of riders, as fares are relatively cheap for all categories. in the u.s., i have to carry a
clipper card for
bart, a
day pass ticket for
valley transportation authority (vta) buses, another
day pass ticket for
alameda county transit (act) buses, and another
day pass ticket for the
sf muni. don't even have to mention the various fare structures and categories of riders among these totally different systems. tickets and passes are not transferable, and the total fare for me per day can come up to usd18!
sinkies should consider themselves
extremely lucky.
