In Malaysia, charges for just a 4km car ride cost RM60, do you think it’s a reasonable?
A netizen, Jade took social media to share 2 text conversation regarding her enquiry on a service sending her kid to school, but she never thought amount quoted is a sky-high price!
Her post read:
I think only people staying in Seremban will understand.
# What happen to the RM60 per day?
# Am i really the one don’t know about the market price?
# My intention is not review her in the public
# I just think she is funny
▼ Text conversation 1: Jade VS Service provider
Jade : From Bukit Kepayang to ACS, Monday to Wednesday, how much you charge per month?
Service provider: Where is ACS? what time is the class?
Jade: Secondary school opposite terminal 1. Reaching school at 7.15am.
Service provider: how many person?
Jade: 1 only
Service provider: Sorry! I need to cook now. Let you know afterwards.
Jade: OK
Service provider: Hello, RM60 per day ok? If ok then tomorrow i can start picking up your kid.
Jade: RM60 per day?
Service provider: Or how other service provider charged you?
Jade: You mean 1 day RM60 or 1 month RM60? Did you write wrongly?
Service provider: RM60 per day i mean, i haven’t calculate a total cost.
▼ Text conversation 2: Jade VS Service provider
Jade: Just to school, single journey for RM60? Both school and home located in Seremban, distance is only 4km.
Service provider: What about RM40? Because i need to include my petrol too. I drive all the way from Rasah Jaya to pick up your kid.
Jade: No need. Thanks!
Let’s check out the netizens’ comments:
▼ Jade then updated in the comments said,” The service provider called and said that’s the market price in Seremban! Ok maybe poverty has limited my imagination!”
▼” RM60 per day, amount paid for a month can pay for the loan to get a car for your daughter. You can ask her to drive to the school instead.”
▼” I don’t want to go university. Better picking up kid can earn more!”
▼” RM60 per day. Teacher also go insane”
▼” Gosh! That’s the price to pay for the ride to go KLIA”
▼” I used to give people a ride from Seremban to KLIA only RM80++. This is only 4km for RM60.”
▼” RM60 per day? better go via Grab, it’s way cheaper. You don’t even need to pay if you didn’t go school.”
▼” Grab also not so expensive”
▼” Me in Segamat, sending students with VIP Van and only RM50 per person per month. Sigh~~ hard-earned money”
▼Some netizen even offered to help,” With this amount of money, i’m willing to help”, ” Me, i half the amount RM30 per month not day ok”
▼” The service provider should be sending your daughter to school. And waited in school until she finished school. That’s why a per day charges”
▼” She is not wrong, she thought you are hiring a driver. It’s your bad as you let her misunderstood that you are hiring a driver.”
▼Some even poking fun and said,” Chartered a flight?”, ” Must be a helicopter coming to pick your daughter up to avoid traffic”
▼The service provider must be driving a Lamborghini with probably a body guard for your kid. Thus priced at RM60.”
▼One also poking fun showing a photo of a sports car, and said,” RM150 per ride, guarantee not getting late to school”
▼ ” She must be driving this car”
▼” RM60 per day?! I also want to join her team! I’m going to make a lot of money”
▼Some thought they should change their career path,” Me taking care of a kid in day care also don’t have RM60 per day kind of charges.. I’m thinking to change my career path now”, ” This kind of market price, time to change career path”
RM60 per day as a charges for single journey, just sending your kid to a school which is 4km away from home. Acceptable? share with us your thought!
