look at the timeline ~ 10 years for completion. Most yishunites will not benefit but will only have to endure the construction noises
Then they ll waste more more more of our $$ on useless mrt rail fencing on empty lands.
good for nx gen for those of us who hv kids

so funny now on Channel 8 interviewing Chee Hong Tat about increasing public transports can encourage people to give up their cars
Does the minister take public transport everyday?

Only when there are (controlled) situations like opening ceremonies where he have to cut ribbon, take pictures, announce policy updates (and then immediately have an incident that completely makes him look like a fool).

Import 2 million more foreigners so we can hit 8 million population.

Then PAP says they are spending so much money to help us, need to increase GST and lock up more Singaporeans CPF.

Public service is around but it doesn't mean another party wouldn't stop the projects? Look at Malaysia. Suddenly want high speed rail. Suddenly cancel.

Now one MRT station cost 700-800 million, next time each MRT station gonna cost 1bil
Definitely they’ll say this is increased in construction costs and quality of the works we provide … and the higher cost quality of life we give to Singapore

And this is also why they built so many BTOs along Yishun Ave 8, Canberra North, and the upcoming new towns of Sembawang North and Woodlands North. All very ulu (for now).
The Yishun Ave 1 should build one as many condo and BTO:D

They can have 100 lines lah but can they ensure that the lines don’t break down.

keep dropping the ball and multi year maintenance with a lot of money spend didn’t move a needle

now they dilute train faults and track breakdowns
