My friend ask how have your life change, when u from a worker change to work as a self employ private hire driver

[True Believer]

Yeah, the driver is the Bus Uncker who always scold moi for 60cent ticket but take $1.20 full trip But poor student back then

I used to do that as a fresh grad from NUS; paid 60 cents regardless of the destination, then pretended to fall asleep when the ticket inspector boarded the bus. LOL!

NUS is good, there are buses along AYE to take to other places

NTU must waste 60cent to get out of the ulu campus to reach Boon Lay MRT…and MRT must tap card

Finance and insurance, professional services, real estate, as well as the wholesale and retail sectors benefit the most from the wider supply chain impact

RIDE-HAILING company Grab added S$5.2 billion to Singapore’s economy in 2023 through its on-demand services such as ride-hailing and delivery, an Oxford Economics report indicated.

This is equivalent to about 0.8 per cent of Singapore’s gross domestic product, said the research firm.

This is a breakdown of the S$5.2 billion contribution to the economy, said Oxford:

Thanks CECA Indians for making our local PMETs become Grab drivers, contribute to GDP growth

A car remains the ultimate status symbol in S'pore. With COE premiums at an all-time high, the appeal of car ownership is even more attractive to those who can afford it.

The PAP wasn't lying about CECAs creating new jobs for retrenched S'poreans such as taxi/private hire car drivers, security guards, deliverymen, cleaners, private tutors etc.

My parents' house was not far from Kent Ridge, so my bus fare wasn't too costly. My Dad would send and pick me up from campus at times too since he was in semi-retirement when I was an undergrad.

PHV drivers have it pretty bad. I notice many of them begging my condo security guards to allow them to use the toilet at the swimming pool when they had the urge, but the guards love to lord it over drivers and deliverymen entering the condo, and flatly refused.

Give a lowly educated security guard a little power and authority, and he will lord it over the maids, PHV drivers, deliverymen and movers at the condo.
