hahahahaha funny sia
Service is getting worse, yet we’re paying more.
Looking forward to TOC’s Public transport week.
if my guess is correct…it’s stand by for 1st September..and u know where!
nvm, i can tell you now. on sunday, at 2pm, taking a train from aljunied into city hall, i had to endure the refugee boat treatment i get every morning at 8am going the same way.
smrt is a profit-making company, and i think its good that they keep themselves lean and efficient. but not at the expense of the public, who by the way, funds the one-off start-up costs involved in setting up mrt lines. we should impose minimum standards on smrt and sbs transit, based on punctuality, frequency, and just as important, passenger load. and the lta must take a hardline stance on standards and prices because smrt is a monopoly, and the pareto efficient outcome is normal profit, not supernormal profit, which i’m quite sure is where smrt and sbs are at.
and for god’s sake miss saw phaik hwa, i don’t care if you’re a straight talking profit generating woman, your duty is not to your shareholders, but to singapore. make as much profit as you want, i just do NOT want to smell anyone’s armpit or feel anyone’s shopping bags spank in my arse on a weekend, understand?
Please have your commentry in English for the movie. Singapore is supposed to be multi racial and I dont understand a word said in your movie. I am a senior citizen and it’s too difficult too difficult to learn a foreign language now. So please be understanding and tolerant with we senior minority races. Thank you!
Can’t wait! Especially after reading today’s ST article that they refuse to raise the height limit for kids to above 0.9cm, with a certain MP “cautioning” us that any changes in height limit would mean that “full-fare passengers are subsidising more”. That sounds like a threat…

due to either evolution or better nutrition, more new generation are taller than before. this is unquestionable even by the best lawyer in the world.
thus, i support raising the height limit for kids. its purely only commonsense which i think most have.

Sir,
All the talks and some of the estab on the job replies are not helping much at all to make a better Singapore sooner. So much good surveys and efforts have been made by concerned citizens.
In fact all the on line forums provide good feedback and will help the establishment if they are to act and prepared to come down their high horse of “know best” and dismissing attitide.
Of course maybe quietly some ideas and feedback are sieved off and incubated for future use and it become improvement in the future. Look at the counter proposal – Townships for foreign workers in the future.
Not pouring water on PTW week – just expressing simple truth.
Everything else is cosmetic. If you cannot beat them – why not join them , that is if you are selected – a good life may await you. If LBW can be selected, so can you.
Netizens – come 2010 vote wisely – that is your only real say individually!
Adios.
I like to comment on the raising cost of driving in Singapore. IT is more and more stressful to drive here i.e. cost . Just look at new roads and highways been built and opened and all for the comfort of motorists but do they improve the congestion. The answer is NO. Look at Lornie’s new flyover to Braddel. Every morning its jam and cars at at a crawl. Does this pave the way to a new GANTRY?? Will all new roads pave the way for gantry’s everywhere. Is this a deliberate act to pull up more gantries? We have not even broch the subject of who’s to BLAME for poor road planning that leads to congestion? Never was this brought up in debate . WHY?? I really like to know. Motorists and incresaed trasnsport fare is the result of poor road planning and the buck is passed on.
Somebody please say something!

Of course lah, if not, then where to find the reason to increase more ERP gantry. Just imagine how shocking when I first saw the new gantry at Toa Payoh Lorong 8, my goodness, they do really know how to chase the traffic all the way up to that spot……tck tck tck! bo bay jiao really.
