Was at the zoo this evening. At the front of the queue was a Merc, then a Chrysler and then me. This China woman open the door of Merc n ask something, then slam the door. Did the same thing to Chrysler. She open my taxi door and ask how much. I said what u mean how much. Ur starting fare she ask. I said $3.40. Slammed the door!! Behind me were another 3 or 4 mercs..KNN...The zoo co-ordinator should asked her to re-queue since she rejected so many taxis!!! Else she can rent the elephants from zoo and get to her destination!!
She should catch bus 138.
Starting fare is 65 cents only.
Is she chio?
How old does she look like?
take bus best confirm cheapest.........
The term taxi arrive from french taxation, meaning it command a higher price, in another words, it is taxing to take a taxi, that, paxs must understand.
The fares is display on the pax side window, I alway ask pax to refer to it, unless chinese who do not understand english word, then I explain to them.

If you are a singaporean, you should know that there are no cheapest taxi, and not only taxi, nothing is cheap is singapore. The most, mere differences is only 20cents, what is there to cheap about, people are willing to siam for that pathetic 20cents, but end up spending on restaurant with 10% svc charges and 7% of Gst out of a $50 meal, which is about $8 given out to nothing.
And during CNY, I see so many people throw 20 cents at temple wishing well and even at marina bay platform wishing light, but take taxi, worry about 20 or 50 cents???
China woman talk to me in chinese, hahahahaha, never entertain. Indian talk to me in Tamil/Hindi also never entertain, maybe older Indian Singaporeans in tamil, may be I accept. Foreign no no no.
I only entertain English, Malay, Hokkien and Tamil the 4 official languages.Wny no Mandarin because Chinese Singaporeans can talk English, so China woman come here, learn English, I go China, I learn Mandarin, fair what.
so far all the PRC i encountered is okay one
better than locals
