Before PMDs are allowed to roam freely on footpath, road and common space, there is NEVER any food delivery services? Motorcycle, bicycle, kick scooter, etc. are the main mode of transport for these delivery personnel isn't it? And I vividly remembered many even delivery food on foot power...

Under the recommendation of Active Mobility Advisory Panel, our government then legalized the use of PMD, and after the occurrence of many foreseeable accidents and fire, they do a U-turn and ban all PMD on foot path (hei this is still not a TOTAL BAN yet OK?)

And to "take care" of delivery personnel who has to rely on PMD for a living, they decided to dig into tax payer $$$ to "solve" the problem, which they have created?!![furious][furious]

Can we tax payer sue them for misuse of public fund, and WP to table a motion to recuse all those concerns from financial related matter???:XD:

oh oh our engineer is upset

I wun b surprised these clowns will take the $$ go buy ciggie 

Knowing how kiasu civil servants are, Grab riders might need to fill up form together with supporting receipt.  The supporting receipt must have serial number of the replacement device.  Lastly, the replacement device together with receipt will be inspected at 1 of the authorised inspection before payment will be made.

Quote

The Ministry of Transport (MOT) on Friday (Nov 😎 said the Government and three major food delivery companies set up this e-scooter Trade-in Grant for affected delivery riders to switch to bicycles, power-assisted bicycles or personal mobility aids. Riders can begin to trade in their e-scooters from next Friday.

I have told my team today that no matter how busy they are in office, try to go out and have lunch instead of depending on all these food delivery service , a bit of walking will help stimulate brain cells.

When the demand dry up, these food delivery farkers will eventually die a natural death .

Expect more road accidents with these food delivery.

I'm not sure why MOT did not consider those who are not doing food delivery but use them to send kids to school for example. 

The poor decision and knee jerk reaction to protests show how bad policies are planned these days by the political party and ministries.

Sending kids to school on PMDs are not safe at all.

PMDs only make life easier for the guardian while endangering the child. 

Good to ban for the sake of the children.
