To be fair, Myki was going to be a mess no matter how you put it. The company behind it had never made that kind of thing before, and we turned down the company behind HK’s Octopus system for them. Still mildly ticked about that, since being able to pay for stuff with the Octopus/Transport card is an amazing feature that more countries should have.

I’d love to be able to hop on a train, and buy a coffee or lunch with just my transport card. It’s very handy.
