There are also a lot of HDB lift problems unreported because it will make the Town Councils look bad, because they use a lot of private-label china lifts.

The BCA department people has no technical knowledge of lifts. All of them don't even more than 10 shafts a year, most NIL. It is like a SAF officer that never go outfield. When accidents happen, they just called for investigation happens and don't even want to sign on it. These fat cats are paid very well but refused to pay good money for real professionals to revamp the management system.

Then most lift PEs in Singapore don't inspect every lift that they signed-on especially ALL THE old fucks above 60. They just stamp on the inspection documents blindly and there is absolutely no liability on them if the lift crashes the next day. There are less than five PEs left in Singapore who diligently climb the shaft and check every lift they sign-on.

Luckily you are delivery rider not an engineer
A delivery person encounter so msny hazards in a day. The bosses at grab or pink panda cannot be bothered if we die or not. No compensation. No insurance. Just enough money to buy burger end of the day plus maybe a coke if enough left over

Many of the crappy China brand lifts are used islandwide, they received official approval from the very top.

Where the town councils differ from one another is the actual amount of money pilfered in each 'upgrading' project. :cool:

Wow, that old building has a lift? I might want to take a ride on it some time.

Speaking of vintage buildings... the Shaw Tower building at Beach Road is being demolished now. Another one bites the dust.
What a pity. That was the go-to place for walkmans and calculators during my younger days....
