Overall, fares will go up by 6 per cent - less than the 7 per cent increase last year when adult fares rose by up to 11 cents for adults per journey.

Those shameless propagandists had to add those words in bold to make daft Sinkies feel touched or comforted by the 'thoughtfulness' of the regime.

The fares will keep getting 'revised', so enjoy what you experience now.

It's a never ending price raises in sinkielands. But sinkies seems to be resigned to their fate.

They have just given every Singaporean a chicken wing. You shouldn’t be surprised that they will ask the whole chicken back

"The new formula is aimed at keeping fares affordable and less volatile, the PTC said then, as two components were fixed to reduce swings in fare changes"

Same pattern as to increase the GST is to help the poor.

Deflation stalking China since last year is now showing signs of spiraling, threatening to worsen the outlook for the world’s second-largest economy and raising calls for immediate policy action.

Data released Monday confirmed that apart from food costs, consumer price growth barely registered in large swathes of the economy at a time when incomes are sagging.

Hike in property taxes, power, transportation, and GST. To preserve a scale equilibrium, we ought to hike the number of votes cast for the opposition too.

Singapore’s upcoming government-owned gas company will charge power generation companies on a so called cost-plus basis, on top of a regulated fee to cover operating costs, The Business Times reported, citing Second Minister for Trade and Industry Tan See Leng.

The initiative is aimed to ensure price competitiveness with a centralized gas procurement framework via a gas entity, also known as Gasco, intended to meet Singapore’s power generation needs instead of maximizing profits, Tan said in a parliament debate on Monday while addressing proposed legislative changes relating to the energy market.
