Cancel taxi fare increase

Cancel taxi fare increase

From Warta Kota

As a night student who must utilize taxi service, I was surprised to hear our City Councillors had approved the proposal to increase taxi fares, when it has been rejected by society and taxi drivers.

This decision is clearly harmful to customers who have to take taxies as a result of the very poor transportation system in Jakarta and its surrounding areas. If it is carefully calculated and viewed from various aspects, this decision is extremely unfair for taxi users in general.

I therefore propose that this decision be canceled. The Jakarta Administration should have taken sides with the people rather than the organization of taxi owners who always focuses on making as much profit as possible.
