New Fare System

According to the Straits Times report, the Transport Minister said in Parliament that the transport operators are expected to forego $88 million a year with distanced based fares, and that the Public Transport Council had assigned them two-thirds of the cost of moving to the new fare system, with one-third of the cost being borne by commuters.

How much did the new fare system cost to implement, and why was this figure not reported?

This article said that commuters are paying more.
