Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story, hosted by Hairianto Diman and Olivia Quay.

Singapore's leading taxi group ComfortDelGro announced it will raise cab fares from March 1, to help cabbies defray higher operating costs resulting from rising fuel prices and inflation.

Senior transport correspondent Christopher Tan looks at how the fare hike will impact commuters.
