Serious LTA 'deeply concerned' - SMRT falsification of maintenanc record.e

Why should the leadership be faulted when they were not involved in the falsified maintenance records?

Today, my office cleaner made a mess of the floor when she spilled water on it. Should I, her employer, be held responsible for her spilling the water?

Yes you are responsible because you hired an incompetent cleaner that don't know how to clean and spill water everywhere. If you hire a qualified and competent cleaner, then no water is spilt and everything is fine.

SMRT suspends team linked to tunnel flood

Bishan depot pump system maintenance team suspended

Train operator SMRT has found that the team responsible for maintaining a pump system that malfunctioned may have falsified documents by signing off on work that they had not done.


It is suspected that such falsification of maintenance records could stretch all the way back to December last year.

The lapses led to a 20-hour disruption on a section of the North-South Line last month as a train tunnel flooded after a heavy downpour.

The manager and staff responsible for the maintenance of that Bishan depot pump system have been suspended and are assisting in investigations, added SMRT in a statement yesterday evening. It said preliminary reports found that records for quarterly maintenance work as far back as December last year, and in March and June this year, were signed and submitted.

But records show the pumps were not activated on these dates, an action that would be required as part of the maintenance procedure. Nor was access to tracks issued.

The Land Transport Authority will evaluate SMRT's findings on the suspected falsification of maintenance records and make its recommendation on the penalties after full investigations.

Wasn't this so called journalist Maria Almenoar the same dumb cunt that wrote an article on how one sinkie cabby earned $7K a month, thereby glorifying all cabbies as rich buggers?

According to cow, this was because of the adversarial relationship between regulator and smrt. Were they more collegial with each other, such things would not have been made public. It is clearly LTA’s fault.

It is the commuter's fault, they didn't agree for a 15% fare increase in 2017 & another in 2018, for you pay more, you get corruption free, hard working & dedicated, workers. It is the commuter's fault!. How can you blame them, the 'toe bone' cannot complain about the 'leg bone', they are from the same skeleton.

It is the commuter's fault..meaning YOUR FAULT!
