After GE, now as expected there will be a fare hike. Right now, the people are make louder noise. They are showing their unhappiness, like how they voted in the opposition into parliment. The people's question is how could fare increase when there is no improvement in transportation? The most obvious is the packed buses and trains. It seems the increase in the number of buses and trains doesn't solve the problem, or did the transport operator increase enough? From the other point of view, you need increament to substain the service provided. If that is the case, the service provided is not a good service. Maybe the gov should start letting a third or forth operator to comes in. There used to have private buses plying the routes but there isn't any now. With more operators, people will have more choices and select the service that best suit their needs. It will also spread out the crowds to other buses.
