Taxi fare hike<\/p>\n
From Warta Kota<\/p>\n
Indifferent and arrogant! This is the attitude of taxi company
\nowners who have increased the taxi fare by almost 50 percent.<\/p>\n
The reason is unclear. We are only told prices of spare parts
\nhave risen, so the taxi fare must also be raised. The people have
\nnot been informed of what is really happening. It's inconvenient
\nif society has to accept this bitter fact of capitalism and free
\ncompetition in this country. What's the use of Pancasila (the
\nfive state principles, where the first one is Belief in God
\nAlmighty), if its materialization is against the idealism of the
\nstate foundation ?<\/p>\n
Up to now land transportation has been messy because of the
\nabsence of a clear-cut and resolute public transportation system.
\nCurrently taxi company owners, in cooperation with power holders,
\nhave taken advantage of the situation by saying \"He who is
\npowerful and rich reserves the right to receive decent services\",
\nand that's the practice of \"homo homini lupus!\"<\/p>\n
The high fare is only good for those capable of paying it.
\nPeople's hearts are aching seeing taxi owners and power holders
\ntaking advantage of the public's ignorance for their own
\ninterests.<\/p>\n
Therefore, we have had enough of administrators in power, of
\npeople's representatives who have never strived for the people's
\ninterest or taxi owners who manipulate the unclearness of the
\ntransportation system.<\/p>\n
If things go on like this, the people might rise and fight.
\nDear power holders, business people and legislators, this state
\nis based on the Pancasila. If they are violated, the law of
\nnature will prevail.<\/p>\n
