Train operator SMRT has completed its own internal probe into the December breakdowns and submitted its findings to the Government.

The 200-page report includes the causes of the disruptions and well as a review of the SMRT’s response in handling the crisis. It also includes recommendations to prevent a recurrence of future breakdowns and SMRT’s preparedness in responding to them.

The report has been handed over to the government-convened Committee of Inquiry (COI), headed by SMRT board member Ong Ye Kung.

In a media statement, SMRT said since the Dec 2011 incidents, it has already implemented its improvement plan to reduce the risk of future disruptions. It will also await the final findings of the COI before implementing future improvements.

The breakdowns that occurred on the 14th, 15th and 17th of December last year affected more than 200,000 commuters in total.


Super efficient SMRT takes 4 months to submit an internal probe. What a joke. I think 2 months is already too long. These fuckers wait until the public anger has subsided than they come out with the report. They take only 2 weeks to decide to increase fares. 4 months for this shit report. If the govt. convened the COI, than why is the COI headed by a SMRT board member. Isn't this a blatant conflict of interest? What incentive is there for Ong to implement any of the findings. Shouldn't the probe be headed by an outside transit condultant or even some one from the MOT? What a joke.
 
If you replace the word 'probe' with 'cover up' it makes perfect sense.
 
纸是包不住火的.

They can't just sweep it under the carpet since MRT breakdown is happening on a daily basis.

Once u see the head of the govt. investigation committee is an SMRT director, u know its a cover up. Anyone can see its a cover up.
 
lucky he never win the last election. otherwise damn jialat leow!

hi there


1. tsk tsk tsk!
2. what probe, what cover up?
3. one word: wayang is suffice.
4. oops! two words: expensive wayang!
 
"The key supports that held the important rails & cables as marked in the report XX-XX, broke at the critical connecting points" will become, "there
are key supports built in place to hold rails & cables as marked in the report. They exist as in the drawings." "Broke" will become "there was wear and tear like all things in the world"

Yeah, probably true, They NEED the 4 months to arrow a volunteer to take the fall, and the 4 months is spend seeing which GLC or stat board got space to put this leech in. Its all wayang. PAP likes to say this is super efficient country, yet probes like this can take 4 months, minister salary reviews can take 6 months, etc.

4 mths, 6mths. Very the good already. Very efficient. Some CPIB probe took 2 yrs and still probing.
 
But wait until the target of the probe is an oppo or someone in con you's bad book. Than the probe will be wrapped up in 2 weeks flat.
