Description

Experience the real Singapore and join Dr. Cai as he recounts true stories about naïve prostitutes and lecherous johns, abusive customers and kind strangers, violent drivers and heart-wrenching encounters. "This book is not just the story of what it is like to be a taxi. It offers snapshots of a Singapore literally on the move, of a restless and dissatisfied population, of people rushing to be somewhere else." - The Straits Times (Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars)
