MP asks SBS Transit to explain lost bus incident
By Lian Cheong | Posted: 15 December 2011 2335 hr
SINGAPORE: The Deputy Chairman of the Government Parliamentary Committee for Transport, Seng Han Thong has asked SBS Transit to explain how one of their bus drivers got lost.
In the incident, which occurred on November 3, service number 52 had strayed from its usual route to avoid a traffic congestion.
But it got lost and passengers ended up spending two hours on the bus.
Seng Han Thong, MP for Ang Mo Kio, deputy chairman, GPC for Transport, said: "What they need to enhance is the emergency preparedness.
"In turn of any emergency, how do you communicate, who do you communicate, what language can you communicate. (The) company has to review all (of) these."
On the recent taxi fare revisions, Mr Seng said the changes could have been better communicated to the public.
ComfortDelGro announced their fare revisions earlier this month.
SMRT made their own announcement shortly after.
Mr Seng said these companies should better explain their rationale for increasing taxi fares.
Mr Seng: "Of course, no one will like the price to be increased. The important point is, how can you be more transparent to let your customer know that the adjustment of this fare is to address the issues. So if a commuter can understand better, I'm sure the response will be different."

explanation???
Actually there was another report that was put up and it seriously boils me when I read it 1 hour ago... However I couldn't find the report anymore (I think it was being taken down le)
Basically the report I read was that SMRT has done all they could, as a good job, dispatched 300 staffs and alot of resource to help the commuters, show ppl directions etc etc... The way it wrote machiam like "There was no problem, we have everything under control very well, so well that we deserve an award" type of report -___-
And now comes this 2nd report: http://sg.news.yahoo.com/train-faults-on-north-south-line-between-bishan-and-marina-bay-stations.html
Totally opposite of the 1st report... That everything was actually not under control...

Seriously, U shld have replaced Tuck Yew...
a long time ago when the stupid bus company was called TIBS then, one of my friends was assigned to audit the company...
seems like there was a big argument because TIBS lumped all their bad investments (in property and other insane things in other countries) in as "losses" into their balance sheet... so that the balance sheet reflected a loss...
the transport operations was profitable.. but they insisted on the loss... there was a face-off when the auditors didn't want to sign off the accounts...
eventually, some nonsense happened and the account was reported as a big loss for TIBS...
TIBS then took the loss to the PTC and they got a fare increase...
With the way things are at SMRT, let me guess what they're gonna say and do:
1). They're gonna say that everything was under control, their staff was really on the ball, the contradictory reports are unjustified, yada-yada.....
2). They're gonna claim that this goes to show that increased train fares are justified due to the need for increased maintenance....
3). They're gonna charge the fella who smashed the train window with vandalism.
