13177 Supersonic September 14, 2016 Share September 14, 2016 Supposed to be so. Bus shd stay the same. Saw the news yesterday saying price of oil and natural gas and some other things went down so should reduce. Now the question is if they are reducing by 5% or not. Personally I think 3 to 4% is more realistic. If bus fare no increase, no wonder their bus standard getting worst?! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic September 14, 2016 Share September 14, 2016 People here really don't know how to complain properly. Let me teach you. Oil price came down so long ago and now only then lower the fares. Think how much profit they made between then and now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic September 14, 2016 Share September 14, 2016 I also write excuses for the transport companies When oil price goes up. Fuel cost is a substantial component of our operational expenses but we tried to minimise the fare increase to our commuters. When oil price goes down and fare decrease is minimal. These days a substantial component of our cost is labour cost and the capital cost of our fleet replacement program. Fuel cost although significant is not a major component. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think of myself as an expert but when I am not fooling myself and when it comes to tai chi, backstabbing and prata I am really just an amateur. Sad to say I am really totally out-classed in these areas. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
