Wind30 Turbocharged September 20, 2016 Share September 20, 2016 (edited) I mean there must be standards for freq of breakdowns right? It is getting so ridiculous. Not just the major breakdowns. The circle line has lots of minor delays that is not reported. If you take the line, you will know.... I mean why even put an army general as CEO of SMRT???? Frankly who choose the CEOs of SMRT in the first place???? I mentioned a few years back it is stupid to put an army general as CEO. Some people say you don't have to know transport issues in depth at CEO level but I think that is totally wrong. Common, if you don't know anything, why put you at the top positions? you need to know enough to know when others is bulls**tting you or not.

Adrianli Hypersonic September 20, 2016 Share September 20, 2016 That seem to be what Khaw has been trying to tell us from the very start........ although he has to be politically correct about how he wayang tells it.... But seriously....things such as a well worn timing /radiator belt, leaking engine gasket, engine oil leaking into the coolant tank, brake sponginess and brake fluid top up, steering fluid top ups..... All these can be picked up with regular and thorough professional maintenance by a good mechanic. All of these can contribute towards you having less chance of being stuck by the side of the expressway when there is a thunderstorm. Our rail is like the VW dry 6 speed gearbox. No amt of maintenance will prevent u from being stranded. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must increase fare to justify that their maintenance cost has increased. They need money to maintain the system lo, if no fare increase, then no money for maintenance, then dont complain on the breakdown. Lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screenshot_20160920-115000-picsay.png unless this ties to his performance bonus, where every train fault, bus delay/bunching, taxi not showing up or taking > 15 mins to flag one, means he gets a reduction in MEASURABLE quantum, you think it will affect him? it'd be just another headline in peasant land. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vratenza Supersonic September 20, 2016 Share September 20, 2016 i just hope he follows the fine example set by Lui TY when the next GE comes up... unless this ties to his performance bonus, where every train fault, bus delay/bunching, taxi not showing up or taking > 15 mins to flag one, means he gets a reduction in MEASURABLE quantum, you think it will affect him? it'd be just another headline in peasant land. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisely, all these breakdown/fault/delay doesnt affect their bonus and salary, thats why khaw and the smrt ceo doesnt bother and care at all. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
