Voodooman Supersonic September 18, 2013 Share September 18, 2013 During peak period, all the counters in Singapore side are manned and they even opened the truck lanes. Malaysia max 75% capacity used. Back flow traffic jam from JB CIQ to SG CIQ is so frequent these days, you see it every weekend and it jams up the Singapore side as well.... They really need to max out their capacity, at the same time, fire all the men and hire more women officers, they are a lot faster, generally speaking.

Victor68 Turbocharged July 27, 2016 Share July 27, 2016 Not to start new thread. There was a report we lost $12m on toll payment annually. Anyone got sack from this simple blunder? Must be focusing more on how to jam up traffic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be focusing more on how to jam up traffic. http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/10-things-know-about-ago-report 3. Land Transport Authority (LTA) A potential $13.93 million was under-collected by LTA at the toll booths at Tuas and Woodlands Checkpoints, resulting in potential loss of revenue. The report also said there was a lack of effective system at the immigration booths to ensure motorists paid their fees. The key words are "potential" and " lack of effective system". Food cannot anyhow eat and words cannot anyhow say. Edited July 27, 2016 by Watwheels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic July 27, 2016 Share July 27, 2016 Collect toll is LTA revenue. So simply why would immigration dept care when it's not their money. Inter department interest at best. Anyway now I make very sure to pay my toll as I have been "educated" by lta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With more ministers taking care of different ministry, they draw their lines. Try talking to MOM, NEA or URA on any building health issue.
