The majority are not blaming the ground staff. 

According to a little bird from the West, SMRT staff, like the father of Iris Lee, are compensated well for working overtime. How can her father complain if he's remunerated accordingly?She has 'Jurong loves Lee Kuan Yew', 'Thank you Mr Lee Kuan Yew' and 'Remembering Lee Kuan Yew' in her Facebook likes. I think that sufficiently invalidates her opinion on the matter.
That's a fake Buddhist
" 2 Major MRT Line Down for Over 2 Hours " - why used Over 2 Hours
and Not " Over 3 Hours " ???
Playing it down. Our nation-building, non-confrontational press is world class at what they do best.![]()

might as well lower the tone further , How about - "down for over 30 mins" ?

Even better, just say down for more than 5 minutes!
Natural aristocrats understand SMRT as cattle trains, it's only a 3 hr delay, lesser peasants ought to wait...
Because Over 2 hours sounds better then Over 10 hours.
this happens when contracts were given to lowest bidder. They should award contracts to uild entire line to one major contractor that build these trains, like alsotm, siemens, hitachi or bombardier, and not based on which signalling power lines, tracks are cheapest.
In events like this, difficult to fault any of the contractors as the mix and match probably does not synchronise properly.
the Hard Truth is that more than Ten of Thousands of Public Transport users
got their time wasted .
100,000 commuters x 5 hours = 500,000 man hours wasted just to say the least.
how did Christopher Tan be a Senior Transport Writer ?

You think real Buddhists are always perfect?
500,000 man hours stuck standing on a train in the dark staring at the ceiling is not productive at all.
