NEL MRT breakdown have too many question ???
What management do?
1st power suply problem then said signaling problem.
Why
1. Why never prepare free shuttle bus to reduce congestion?
2. Why dont repair the power cable bolt broken and signaling problem when detected on about 2.30pm. That none peak hour. Just stop the whole NEL line for 2~3hour to repair the fault so can resume when peak of 5pm. Guide commuter to use shuttle bus.

I think I can be better SMRT CEO.

Really fuck SMRT management.

NEL is operated by SBS Transit, not SMRT.

But it's a left hand vs right hand thing, just like the 'competition' between Singtel and Starhub, or Capitaland vs Mapletree... you get the idea. That's how things are in Singapore Inc.

SBS/SMRT same company.
Now talking about how bad they manage. Few from the top management need to resign or boot out.

[h=2]Public outcry over massive train delay along Northeast Line this morning[/h]Posted by temasektimes on August 17, 2012
A massive outcry has erupted among Singaporeans over a massive train delay along the Northeast Line this morning.
SBS Transit initially claimed that ”additional travelling times of about 20 minutes in both directions may be expected.”, but it turns out that most commuters were delayed by more 30 minutes, causing many to turn up late for school or work.
Some ‘feedback’ from commuters on Facebook:
“I was at punggol station at 0740,the announcement said delayed for 10-15min,the train came at 0805,n every station stop at least 10min,so do the maths,how long the delay,from punggol to harbourfront.” – Mohammad Faizul
“World class transport! Train stops at every station for 10 to 15 mins …. 30 minute train ride to harbourfront takes 75 mins! All hail our transport minister wayang all the way!” – Claire Lee
“I was late. Nonsense! They keep announcing ten to fifteen mins delayed. But it’s not!!! Every stop they waited for like ten mins. Then every train was packed like sardine!!! Waited for more then 4 trains before can board! Wth! We pay taxes to get this type of lousy train service. Hallo… Those up there sitting comfortably in ur office pls wake up!!! Pls do something to stop this type of things from happening too frequently!!! Thank u!!!!” – Kyris Koh
In a brief statement issued to the press, SBS Transit said a ‘power fault’ was responsible for the delay and apologized for the inconvenience caused.
Train delays have become a common occurrence in Singapore as the infrastructure strains to accommodate the increase in population caused by the relentless influx of foreigners.
