Instead of making the bus/train companies accountable for their cost

ministers' salaries: i.e. he wants to survey the profits of other
transportation companies and benchmark them to set the fares. In other
words, make obscene profits at the cost of the average commuter.
Cedric Foo, as you recall, is the clown who proposed conducting IPPT in
the aircondition comfort of the SAFRA clubhouse.

Hasn't the price of oil dropped? Even the petrol stations have revised
their pump prices downwards. So how come the bus and train fares are
going up?
