Now the journalist trying to cover her ass...
 
Re: ‘S$7k A Month Driving A Taxi? Possible, But They’ll Burn Out’

Just a few comments to make-

1) She is not a Pinoy FT but a true blue Singaporean Eurasian type (mixed) with no Pinoy blood whatsoever.

2) I know her and if anything, Mat driver was out of his league when he boasted about his 7k earnings only to be caught out online.

3) Lastly, I still hate the shittytimes but not the people working for it. How many ex employees / ex editors have spoken out against it already.. If you get my drift..

:D

By Maria Almenoar Transport Correspondent
Taxi driver Muhammad Hasnor Hashim has changed his account of life as a taxi driver a week after making the news for claiming to earn $7,000 a month.


The 32-year-old had told two journalists of The Sunday Times that he earned that sum by working hard and working smart driving a Premier taxi. On Saturday, he said he made $7,000 only once, in May this year, and that he usually earns $4,000 to $5,000 a month.


He is also no longer driving a Premier taxi. He said on Saturday that he had left the company after three months because other cabbies there were unhappy with him. "They would see me in the lift and make comments at me," he added.


Premier Taxis confirmed that he is no longer one of its drivers, but declined to confirm if he left on his own or if his contract had been terminated. Its spokesman would only say that the reasons for his departure were confidential. Mr Muhammad said he is now driving for another cab operator.


Background story


What Mr Muhammad told The Sunday Times at his first interview where both a reporter and a photojournalist were present


"My taxi is a money machine."


What Mr Muhammad told the photojournalist during an interview for The Straits Times' Through the Lens video series, when asked if it was true that taxi drivers cannot earn a lot of money


"I don't agree. If I tell you I earn $7,000, some of the taxi drivers outside also get angry, 'Wah lau, this guy, very cocky. Sure or not, $7,000?' But touch their heart, ask themselves, they know."


What Mr Muhammad said yesterday, when asked why he gave the figure of $7,000 in the original interview


"Maybe I thought I was being asked how much a taxi driver can earn."

everyone know that is not true, only the brainless 154th so call journalist submit the rubbish to his editor, and the brainless editor let it appear on the paper. We should not blame the m&d, but the paper.
