A better taxi service

Dear Mr Tan,

I read several of your blogs where you complained about the high cost of taxi fares. Are you aware that taxi fares are more expensive in cities such as London, New York and Tokyo?

REPLY:

Taxi fares should be relative to other forms of public transport. It can be 3 or 4 times the cost of bus or train fares, but should not be higher.

Many people are forced to take taxis due to the lack of a convenient alternative. They do not know how to take the bus, because the routes are quite complicated.

We need to improve our public transport system, and make more efficient use of our resources.
