Lui Tuck Yew has done so much for the public transport system yet he is the one quitting politics

Let's look at what Lui Tuck Yew has done for us:

-800 new buses
-40 new bus services + many more new bus services since then
-Free morning train rides
-Poly concession
-99 new trains
-Free wifi in MRT

He was given a pos system and he has tried his best to improve it but alas, it was already damaged beyond repair. I really don't think it is fair for him to become the scapegoat even though he has put in so much effort.

Meanwhile we have ministers collecting cardboard for exercise yet I don't see him quitting politics to collect cardboard fulltime.

More than meets the eye.

Heard from Coffee shop uncle that tuckie resignation from politics will insulate The white team from all the transport issues that cropped up for the past 5 years

He's probably given the step down order to minmise for damage control from the opposition.

But not to worry, he will be given 安家费 thru some high post in some garment companies

that is reasonable true also which I also feel that.

He just been a scape goat ....as Opposition surely use transports matter to debate during rally

Now he has gone...so Opposition still want to debate?

PAP surely reply back in their rally See our transport minister have step down , resign . We view our job " VERY SERIOUS ".

talent ish there to solve the problems.

Yes. He is trying to change things while receiving constant flak from all directions. His letter to PM reflect how he has been fighting a lonely battle by himself over these years.

 “You reminded me that the responsibility of Government was a collective one, and no minister carried difficult problems like public transport alone. I deeply appreciate the reassurance and support. But having thought the matter over carefully, I have decided that I should stand by my original decision.

“I have put my utmost into fulfilling my responsibilities.”

TS so fast forgot abt the fare hikes approved under him?

I feel this is no choice...

Put it another way....if you work for SMRT do you want your wage increase? Year end bonus got more?

all these are taken from daily fares also....

Of course don't compare with that High wages CEO ..lor again this have to trace down how he manage the management...Fair or not or bo chap....

Some of the changes done will take time to realise. Like revamping the bus operator model and purchasing more buses.

All this is to rely lesser on the increasingly unreliable railway system.
