most employers know that malaysian women working in s'pore is the most unreliable, if they not happy, they will just pack and go back malaysia, and don't even serve notice.

in saw's case, she was handpicked for some reason, like someone on top probably like her. this top brass must be blamed and not saw.:rolleyes:

You pity Saw Paik Hwa? She is probably laughing at you. She went from retrenched jobless woman to become SMRT CEO for a few years, earning millions.

The NEL cuts through the 'dragon meridians' from Pearl's Hill, across the Singapore River, Fort Canning Hill and all the way up to Serangoon.

Operator SBS Transit said it was due to a sudden electrical surge on the train heading towards Punggol.

A short in the surge protector resulted in a loud sound.

So now SMRT needs a surge protector protector?

Cannot go on only one vendor, if vendor kaput leow leow. Need two or three vendor and a forced compatibility specs, so that there is a fall back and competition in service and pricing.

Heard about the made in China buses but I don't think the trains are from china:confused:

What surprised me is that they are using MRT & LRT from different vendors. If they wanted to be cheap, wouldn't it make more sense to just use one vendor? There would be an economies of scale in training, parts sourcing, maintenance, etc

Isn't Alstom the vendor of choice for MRT?

I kept seeing their equipment when MRT stations were still undergoing construction.

Many MRT systems are single sourced such as Bangkok, Toronto, ... In fact I notice that Bangkok uses the same trains as Spore. Never heard of any MRT system having problems when their vendor went kaput. I am sure the original SMRT personnel would have sourced from a reliable vendor. Back then the MRT investment was an expensive project
