I have a smart alek moment: why not recover this cost due to the fk up by upping the fares by $2 but phased in so the passengers dont feel it? For rexamper, every month just increase by 10cents? This way, the very smart alek public may say, "haha, it's just 10cents. Ok lah👌😊" and say so repeatedly until $2 fare hike is accomplished? Can I get a Nobel prize for this?

Funny you said that, Cause there have been trains running around on the same MRT line for more than 35 years already Yet LTA wants to increase the fares of train rides for all of us Totally makes sense to only the people works for LTA and this government we have
If your car wheel while driving suddenly fall out, means someone forgot to tighten the wheel nut while servicing loh, 1 technician and 1 inspector going to kena
if don't use then less train on service mean less frequent then you will complain again do noted that the first generation train took up about 25% of the entire NSEWL train fleet that will be like about 25% of the train gone
Some of London Underground 's trains are already 50+ Years old. Does age really play an important factor? Or are we worse in maintaining trains than other countries?
The MRT disruption on the East-West Line (EWL) on September 25th was caused by a faulty 35-years-old train that damaged the tracks near Clementi station. They should have removed part of the axle from the faulty train before dragging it back to maintenance depot. It is the axle that dropped and hit the 3rd rail which caused the electricity outage and also extensive breaks across the stretch of rail track while being dragged along. If portions of the faulty axle cannot be removed, specialized equipment such as using cranes or other heavy machinery to lift and move the train to their maintenance depot. In short, the MRT maintenance crew lacked common sense because they ignored safety to humans and equipment in their SOP (standard operating procedures). On the whole, without this incident, our MRT system is fine and is one of the best in the world.
Why blame the Kawasaki trainset for the damage to the rail and some electrical components of SMRT? The blame for that should be on SMRT's maintenance provider. On the JR East line, specifically on the Chuo and Sobu Line, and the same on the Tokyo Metro, specifically on the Tozai Line. They still use the JR East 209, Tokyo Metro 05, and 07 series made by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, which still works well on their tracks. Whereas those old KHI trainsets were made in the 80s and 90s. Even the Odakyu and Seibu trainsets made by Nippon Sharyo in 1983 are still used today. The quality and dedication of Japanese railway engineers are different, which is superior. And nothing beats their skill when it comes to railway maintenance. Siemens is also used by BTS Skytrain trainsets in Thailand, particularly in Bangkok. The Siemens trainsets on the BTS Skytrain are running smoothly on the tracks. The BTS Skytrain rarely has technical problems in Thailand. It's the same with their SRT, in which technical problems are rare. Most of their SRT train sets come from JR East which is second-hand trains. But they are still in good use. SRT's engineering staff refurbished JR East's second-hand trainsets, making the trains look brand new again. That's why Japanese people love to visit Thailand because the BTS Skytrain network is efficient and their SRT is supported by Japanese technology. I just noticed that SMRT no longer procures train sets in Japan. SMRT always buys their new train sets from CRRC, Alstom, and now from Hyundai Rotem. It looks like SMRT is cost-cutting its budget nowadays.
Can we have an episode on whether Change in Traffic Light timing can lead to jams that make me perceive the COE is justified even if less cars are on the road , if thats really the case, so help me god?

Singapore has already lost all the technical skills in all every area. It depends so much on foreign workers and expertise to plan, build and maintain our infrastructures. Everything here just stalled if foreign workers leave Singapore.
I donno the internal makeup of SMRT. My friend in Army worked there at one time after he rod. The workers may be like a lot of ITE guys. Station crews are like semi retired a few. The call centers manned by pinay. 1 time she called me. Technical work definitely have some foreigners but I donno how many. Construction work definitely include south asians, lay the lines and electrical work. Now it becomes complex not like last time 2 line, now a lot of protocols. If they beg you to work for them, you might not even want to speak to them, Because firstly there are some bureaucracy and foreigner being the supervisor. That's what happens, got to take very careful thinking, donno whether will kena 'didn't follow procedures'. That's why they take longer.
Don't rush the repair works please. Safety number one. It's only partial of the 1 of the 6 mrt lines affected, not the whole transport system down. Aiyo, just find other alternatives for the time being lor. Kbkp also won't make the situation better. People taking the mrt for granted.

There is a meme surrounding Yishun. There were a lot of strange happenings over a period of time. Cat murders, and human murders. Saw a vid of someone marching along the road in the rain, mental case. I know Yishun. When I live at sembawang, Yishun wasn't built yet. But we know Yishun was rubber plantation, Cemetery and WWII mass grave pit somewhere. There are also Army barracks. The people of Yishun town consist of locals who live at kampungs in the past around the Sembawang area. Some Malaysians PRs and locals. Before the influx of China, Indians, Pinoys, the exact ratio I'm not sure. A second or third rebuild maybe 10 years ago saw a lot of BTOs came up. It became very crowded place. People living in Yishun might be frustrated, but Yishun always seem like PAP town. Some people joke Yishun is a crazy place but they themselves live there. There are likely some crimes, like Loan sharks, drug offences, once someone grew Ganja. It is mainly a blue collar town before they build condos there for some foreigners. oh and there was an extremist plot on bumbing Yishun MRT because the Allied forces used to frequent Yishun MRT as it was the nearest MRT route before Canberra and Sembawang station came up.
With all the windfall from Coe and tax from new cars ppl still suffered the train breakdown and fare increment. Pay and Pay only the rich likes and the stupid poor suffered in silence
Simply it is a bad maintenance related issue nothing about the age of the train. No need to make a big story out of this. Elsewhere in the world even a 151 year old train is still running.
It is elementary. When the number of people taking public transport increases, the train frequency and the number of trains increases and therefore the chance of breakdown is increased.
they're being retired as we speak lol so far 17 out of the 66 old trains retired already the new trains that are replacing the old trains are gradually entering service
How would privatising help with the situation or prevent the train fault? Also people are going to complain once they increase their prices as usually privatising boards typically make them more profit driven than they currently are.
Hey, you dont ever say anything bad of our the holy PAP government and its official unless you are prepared to face the consequences of been sued till bankrupt and live your life in miseries thereafter.
For that free transport, the Garment will gradually increase the fare price again.

Better to have lesser trains that work fine than old trains that damage the tracks and cause disruptions that last for days on end.
