Time to bring in prominent oppies for questioning. We will get the truth out of them once we electrocute their nipples. What's the mata waiting for?

I bet my last dollar, due to lack of maintenance.

they were overhauling escalators on several mrt stations late last year, after the sump pump fiasco and signaling breakdowns. either they missed this one or maintenance crew screwed up during the overhaul process. supervisors were no where to be seen when lowly grunts did their work. must be banging hookers in geylang or drinking kopi and chomping on kaya toast at toast box.

whichever the case may be, they'll find some grunts and/or supervisors for the chopping block. No proper accountability and possible falsification of maintenance records. Big bosses will be untouched.

They can find excuses for anything under the sun in PAP 101, recently the 'ape' looking masala good says..."it will flood sometime". In PAP 101, Chap 8, section 888, it says, " if the escalator doesn't smoke, we worry". It us a minor situation, don't get xenophobic, let is move on, clear the station, do good , do together, do it now!

The maintenance people must be having too much pressure from the top, to DO GOOD DO TOGETHER & DO IT WELL!!...but the duit, not so well!. So, apply 'too much grease' in the moving parts...when rubbed together, SMOKE will appear.

The supervisor's maybe from Baguio or Munbai, the most likely to get the chop..will be the unionised SINGAPOREANS...who will be made the scapegoat..
