  And teach them a lesson ... and support SMRT , TransCab , and the rest .

  Why boycott ?

  KNN when diesel $$$ goes up , first one to implement fuel surcharges , when oil prices came down , dilly dally ..... until people down the surcharge liao , then they last to make the move .

  How to boycott ?

  1. Stop booking their taxis .

  2.Wait for next available non-comfortdelgro cab when non rush hour .

  3.Rush hour ? is there any rush hour nowadays ? So take your time to wait for the next available cab .

  Consequences ?

  Drivers wages down , recession caused driver's wages down , they resign , comfort stuck more taxis in the back-yard .

  Recession , more retrenchments , more people will  join taxi line , but this time around , they will chose taxi coy who can give them better benefits .... comfort don't give the best benefit and rental by the way .

  See how long Comfort can sek chwee how long !

  Drivers suffers short term , minimum damage , for their long term benefit , they must fight !!

  If drivers and commuters joined hand in hitting at ComfortDelgro .... C/Delgro will be a piece of cow dung actually .

  Imagine 2500 taxis un-rented , just 25% of their fleet , one Toyota crown eg , $80 ....

  2500 x $80 = $200,000 lost daily , monthly ? U go and count !!!!

  Only when they suffer , they'll do something for the drivers , or drivers-to-be .

  boycott unless really absolutely necessary..

  unless cabbies won't mind me choosing cabs (e.g take the 2nd cab instead of the 1st one in the queue)..
