Desmand Kuek Bak Chye SMRT CEO since 1 Oct 2012 (1 yrs anniversary)

[Confuseous]

The only thing missing is that management team should also be in uniform - since the latest PR man is also ex-military, with zero experience on public relations, unlike the lady he took over from.

Society is much better when people are not hung up over triviality. You have been away but you are still so PAP.

I learned from Japs, the Germans and the Swiss not the PAP.

In Switzerland, you can be fined for flushing your toilet after 10 pm in an apartment block. A small issue and often done inadvertently. However, the fine still stands.

The logic behind these strange laws is that as trivial as the offenses may appear, they are part of a set of rules designed to ensure that people live harmoniously within the same space.

why do you pick and choose? Switzerland leaders do not demand high salary but why do you agree that taxpayers must pay Singapore leaders with huge sum of salary?

It is not a law, just a clause in rental agreements. It smacks of intolerance.

Nothing to do with governments. The laws in Switzerland are via binding referendums initiated by ordinary citizens. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referendum#Switzerland

According to the news, trains and buses are getting more crowded and more serious and the condition is so critical that many passengers are so stressful and fight with each other in the trains and buses.

This is reported by SPH MSM.

Down Town Line was commissioned under the watchful eyes of Desmond Kuek Bak Chye and he shall be sacked

 

[palden]

No difference. Still got breakdowns. Sinkees get tired of barking.

 

[cass888]

Those who want their money are allowed to take it - after they renounce their citizenship.

That was a good move. Too many Singaporeans were squandering their life savings in months.

[enterprise2]

He better succeed!! He fails, he's going to take PAP down with him!!

 

[The_Hypocrite]

Wait till u kenna the posting of old thread infraction etc etc..

ok lah, 2 points is not a big deal. But it is still annoying to be 'punished' for something that trivial and was done inadvertently.

 

[cass888]

You are an ignoramus. Downtown Line is under SBS, not SMRT.

SBS, SMRT ...same lah. They are both overpaying management and underservicing commuters. And we pay more and more.

For commissioning of new lines, I think the main responsibility lies with LTA. With so many screw up due to wrong choice of expensive material and mce that is dead from day one, it shows you need a technical man at the top. Not a silly scholar from Japan.
