Anything to do with money making by Pay and PAy will hardly or never go down. Petrol prices go down, they will still continue to increase the utilities bills. MOney is always not enough for them. They are in to suck us dry now and forever as long as they are in power. To people who love to be sucked dry by Pay and Pay, please vote for them.

Hi,
I have been browsing this forum for some time. Just decided to sign-up to post in the forums after benefiting from the many informative postings.
Businesses can easily quote things like oil price, globalization, inflation etc as reasons to justify price hikes.
Indeed, many many businesses have hiked their prices.
But when oil price drops, will businesses reverse the hike?
Things like Food items have become more expensive across the board including staple items.
I think life is like this, when oil price drops, hiked prices will not be reversed.
And everyone has no objection about it, I suppose, based on historical evidence ;)
Moral of the story - good to be doing business in a pro-bis environment. You die, you die lor.

That's the problem with Singapore. Petrol price go down you don't expect price drop. Even when the economy went down there were no price drops. There were even increases. This is how Singapore became so expensive.
Has anyone ever heard of price decrease in Singapore before? Not in my 40 years of my life. Only price hikes.

Wrong, because public transport does not use petrol.
... petrol, deisal, cng, come from what?... OIL isn't it?
... so if oil prices drops, then petrol will drop, as do and should the rest like deisal, and cng...
... but as we know our so called 'government', they will choose to ignore the facts, and fabricate their own 'logics' or 'reasonings'...
... and reason away their election future they shall...

What the TS asked is why petrol price goes down and our milliond $earned net profit public compines do not lower their fares?
million $ profit? how much did diesel cost went up? how much are their profits affected? Answer can only be known on Wed when SBS post it's Q2 resultsI'd rather they continue to make profits be it more or less, rather than them making losses
anyway if you want to question, you should question why are e oil cos making billions of profits?

Honestly is anybody really stupid enough to believe fare hikes are directly related to oil prices? The only thing is that the rise in oil prices was a convenient excuse for PAP to announce fare hikes.
2 things are for true though, PAP is only interested in profiteering and Raymond Lim is a 4-eyed dickhead.

First time that I actually agree with sbst275, they should make profits rather than losses.For FY 2008 SMRT made losses of SGD 150 million.
While SBS Transit made losses of SGD 50 millon.
