Monkeys refuse unequal pay

This strike by SMRT bus drivers has been hogging all the news headlines recently. There is no point commenting on whether they have a right to strike, or whether they are right to do so. That certainly didn't bother them, and it's not going to stop them either.

In fact, I'm really interested in seeing how this unfolds, as this is a good case scenario as to how the government here will deal with dissidents. Better for some Chinese dudes to take a hit first and find out the hard way. Their home country does it better anyway.

It's funny though is how their actions are perhaps of a baser nature, as it seems that even monkeys reject unequal pay for doing the same thing.
