Busy is those event that need car, at one shot call 20-30 cars for shuttle service. If no do these shuttle, u think busy? All the hotels already booked, all come for F1, one night minimum$500-$650++ minimum must pay 3 nights stay.
Those come for F1 never go zoo, bird park or Sentosa, they only at Marina Bay Area, after watch F1 go Clarke quay, disco drinking clubbing.
inside Suntec, marina square like ghost town.. F1 bo lasah lah.. Got meat one is Airshow.. Knn, sign one deal worth millions and Airshow is one whole week, F1 only 3 days Niah,

Actually, you know why people tout? 2 reasons,
1) easy money (one trip from MBS to Sentosa or to city area, $50 and above, zoo, bird park $60 and above
2) providing an extra express service (there are always those desperado who need transport fast and dun mind paying more. U TDs should know those long queues waiting at safari, zoo, MBS at certain piang time, taxi not enough, no problem, touter come and help out lah.)
y TDs cannot see open? U earn your living, touter earn their living lah, they also providing a service mah... Y those TDs must complain??
u think these Combi and limo hungry?? Pls hor, they all very selective one hor... Jurong west, CCk, Bkt Panjang, woodlands, sembawang to airport, they not interested one hor..
airport arrival must take sign, go in catch pax they also not interested one hor.

This type of things, there are 2 sides of a coin..
they are also providing a service to the pax, if they are reasonable, $55 or somewhere there, and pax have a lot of ppl, why not??
also, this type of things ä½ æƒ…æˆ‘æ„¿ã€‚pax dun mind pay more and get to their destination faster. I think it's legit... In SG, rules and laws are too rigid.. It's only the Gahmen way or the highway...
but now, as time evolves, SGporeans become more educated, become more vocal, that's why a lot of these problems... Last time people where got complain so much? MRT not well connected, Car so expensive, still can take trishaws. Now trishaws for Japanese and Angmo only.. You guys know what I mean?
Talking about trishaws, there are trishaws also touting at Clarke quay, u see before?? They no do wrong?? 1 ride $35-45... Ok???

Shift changing hrs are understandable...nowadays public also not stupid.
But when all play the same trick...this become big problem.
Haiz...really face palm.

You see, usually "they" will appear when that area got high demand of taxi....
Is our Sg taxi really not enough?....
Those so call willing pax are actually waiting for a taxi....
If those "limo drivers" approach them when there's no high demand of taxi, than I say they are steady....
If not, than I look down on them lor....

It is not about who paying or who taking the paxs, that is trival issues, what is more important is CONTROL.
We do not care much about those touting guys, they earn their living and we earn ours, but if illegal touting is allow to functions freely just like illegal prostitues is allow to roam geyland freely, what is the end result? you go figure it out.
In a law abiding Singapore, the keys is control, it might seem trival at first, but when thing get out of hand, I think TD also can change job, get a van and do touting, and the whole street will be full of people touting paxs, and as such, chaos take over, public complain being harassed, TD complain no business, jam here and there..all hell break loose.
Just like sex with underage, last time, no much of a problem, but because many start to do it, the govt have to put a stop in it, put them to shame and hopefully, it can deter others from doing it, but frankly, I also dunno the age of my bak bak girl, look young,,,,told me 21yo, limpeh better check it out, if not later face on paper, sgforum also no face
