Unreasonable bus fare

Unreasonable bus fare

From Warta Kota

Despite the fare increase of air-conditioned, express passenger buses (Rp 3,300), the bus conductors generally collect only Rp 3000 from each passenger.

The commuters' choice of this particular bus is of course for the sake of their convenience and safety. Unfortunately, the bus drivers and conductors seem to ignore this fact. This is obvious when even though all the seats are taken the conductor continues to pick up passengers and they have to stand in the crowded bus.

Of course, it is unfair for standing passengers if they have to pay the same fare as those who are comfortably seated. It would be better if the standing passengers paid only half of the standard fare.

I would like to request the authorities to consider this matter.
