[GLGT] Raising rail reliability targets could come at a cost to taxpayers, commuters: Chee Hong Tat

[Geminiboy]

1 million km between failures. then can have failures that last 7 days. Want better than that? Please pay more.

Chee Hong Tat wansui! PAP wansui!

 

[boredom2012]

I thought Coe make up for that

 

[inf|uencer]

Then fares should be lowered to meet current reliability standards

 

[havoc23]

huh, if i pay more , confirm won't break down ah?
so what if breakdown?

 

[kyang69]

Defug is he talking about? So many years of fare hikes is to do what? Isn't "Reliability" a core duty of public transport operators, besides "Safety"?

Knn, don't talk so much, kick him out in the next Election!

 

[identity_1991]

As if the recent breakdown did not cost taxpayers?

What CHT is actually saying, he is not confident that even with more maintenance at higher cost, the system will be more reliable....

If this is his caliber, is CHT a cost to taxpayers?

We are also not confident that even with the increased pay of his salary at higher cost, the quality of his work is also not reliable.

Good, election is coming, just vote him out to solve our problem.

 

[elmohootbigbird]

that kinda sound like a threat. so is it one?

i guess we could say large scale public transport breakdowns may come at a cost of public support. even more so when costs go up further.

 

[Tayliatorhard]

Should give them all 2k basic salary with meals provided.

Every 1 million miles with no breakdown then payout bonus.

Everytime increase 1% for fare, reduce bonus by 10%

remember simplygo?

 

[0o0cash0o0]

If train no breakdown then need increase fare, if fare increase and train breakdown he will take responsibility and quit?

Who voted this joker?

 

[Quala98]

Raise or no raise, almost every December still raise fare

Costs go up no matter what happens.

Thanks.

 

[nez]

got $$$ to build the white elephant Founders park... no $$ to do up the public transport! Money should make to good use for the best of the public.... not something to show off........... Also this joker....... keep pushing COE high and Car lite country..... but cannot maintain the public transport that serves the major..... PLEASE VOTE CAREFULLY

I agree

 

[niwde7]

Expensive like their pay?

 

[standarture]

So the billions earned from COEs and ERP go where?

 

[hctawsgs]

Means more breakdowns....more repairs....more fare hikes.....is this how things work in PAP's Singapore? ........ sadly 70% voted for this sht........

 

[sensible]

Since when a government ministry is responsible for the profitability of private companies?!?!

 

[animeonegai]

whats the fare price for taipei and guangzhou? Its hightime they should stop passing the cost to taxpayers and consumers.

None to be exact and by right.

BUT in Singapore's system, MPs earn additional incomes from private companies they're in, so... their incomes and bonuses are hooked to the profitability of the private companies, which lead to the conflict of interest and the "by left".
