how to travel? cost of fares up and up!

first we heard that taxi and bus fares will be increased come 1st of may.

now we hear that ferry service fares (plying between penang island and mainland) will be increased 100% come 1st of may. why don’t they increase the penang bridge toll?

cannot take taxi as expensive, take bus… but the cost of bus fare also increased. cannot take ferry as cost increased, so take penang bridge lah – then increased penang bridge toll!!

wow! what an excellent way to welcome labour’s day 2005.

note: ong from malvu informed of a ‘protest ride’ against this 100% ferry hike. if interested, do join him.
