Haven't you learnt your lesson the last time when SBS Transit sold the 2 bendies to NZ?

Grow up and stop behaving like a bullying kid.- In the first place, I am not even interested in your "smart" idea, because I know it will never happen. So why should I "game enough" to go with your "smart idea" in the first place? You suggested it since you think it can help me solve the problem. Fine, you go write the letter because I won't do such a thing that will not work. If you wrote the email to them and they agree, please let the whole world know, you win, your idea works. If this "smart" idea can work, everyone can be the CEO of SMRT because everyone is very unhappy with SMRT way of managing their services and the kind of screwed service they rendered for them all these years.
- I know complaining here won't change anything but at least I share on my past bad experiences on how badly they managed their own customers feedbacks and complaints. Before I even joined this forum, I had done my part to feedback and complain on the aspects that SMRT failed to fulfill since they absorbed TIBS. Despite years of complains, incidents, they refused to listen, take their own sweet time to improve but yet keep on increasing fares every year which is not justifiable for their service standards. Even in the mainstream media, despite complains and incidents report, nothing much improved. They continued their way of doing things, neglecting the basics of providing a good service while concentrating paying fat profits to their shareholders. Look now, what happened, operations failed badly, profits dropped, share price tumbled, can of worms finally opened. That has already a fact, only you yourself keeps on denying with false information and your own fiction.
- Your earlier arguements in this thread has already shown that you just want to win arguements, using lame factless claims to keep on supporting your nonsense, acting like you are some big shot here demanding "official" news for prove to you, while many of these people are telling you nicely what is actually the most likely scenario.
- Can't compare because of differences in what way? Land is bigger, thus some companies are bigger, yet they can manage well. SMRT is relatively very small as compared to them and yet it failed so badly. If such a small company is managed so badly, then there is something very wrong with the company structure, the mangement. Even in the recent news, it has already said that SMRT don't even have a standard proper SOP for major train disruptions. So what does it tell you?
- Lastly back to the first point again. Who do you think you are to judge me then? Who are you to tell me to be the CEO of SMRT when I complain about them? Don't act like you know everything and try to act like a big shot here, demanding this and that which can solve your solution. I don't want to challenge your childish act of challenging me a flame war like those kids previously.
- Mr carbikebus and other bus fans are right, you are the real joker making a fool out of yourself time after time here. My last advice for you: Stop acting like a big shot here demanding this and that here, you don't believe then it's your own business, don't stop people from sharing information here. If you can't give sustainable solutions, then just keep quiet and see how others do it. Giving pointers like "since you are so smart, you go do it" but you yourself can't even do it, shows you are a NATO only. I rest my case.
I NATOed. Alright. But I managed to live with it. Can you? You cant.
All these complaining and whining doesn't help. Infact they still stayed the same. No change at all. What's beyond their control and what's not, These people will see for themselves.
One thing, either you live with things, or you can keep bitching about it and it never changes.

2-3 years is good enough. They are expanding their facilities and just one more depot. Only the current Woodlands depot seems unable to house dds, which will probably for servicing single deckers only. The other depots can support dds. And just in time to replace the first batch of bendies.
Current Yishun interchange will be torn down by next year. The shophouses around the area is getting ready to be torn now. Scaffoldings are already erected around the shophouses and construction vehicles are inside there for weeks already. I think they are going to announce building a new temp interchange for Yishun soon and it's immediate that it is ready to allow SMRT to use dds in it.
Yishun Central redevelopment is stated to be ready by 2016
I still maintain my stand it is still not enough. They have plenty of issues to look after, Not only just the convience but the maintainance plus many things. KJDEP can shift to a confirmed land but they will expand, But not necessarily their structure is DD ready yet. We will see if by 2013 if they will switch after 838H reached 17 years of its lifespan.

You think land in Singapore is cheap??? The depot might expand a bit in size but definate not a lot for the sake of parking the bendies. The new depot will be build higher to accomodate double deckers, especially all new bus infrastructure are double decker friendly. They want to park more buses inside, not spend more money on more land space for housing bendies.

Only current SMRT Woodlands depot looks not ready for DDs. Kranji is shifting and there will be a new one for Woodlands too, so hope they will be DD friendly. Ang Mo Kio is DD friendly too but think its lease is going to end soon.
Bus interchange, only Yishun is not ready for DDs but Yishun interchange is going to tear down soon and so the new one is going to be DD friendly. The rest of the bus interchanges under SMRT are DD friendly.
Maintanance for DDs should be easier than bendies.
The mainterence ah, takes time for ppl to adjust rite? after all, to deal wif another totally different kind of bus leh...

Citaros and O405 easiest to maintain!!! Extend some more!!
See the creepy Lances going to scrap already!!

Ya, but it won't need to take very long.
SBST and SMRT don't take very long to know how to maintain the new low entry and low floor when buses are switched to WAB few years back, and double deckers are much easier to maintain as compared to a bendy bus with complicated electronics at the turntable and the articulated joint. -
Ok wanna ask you all,If KMB 2 axles DD with powerful engine option crush load how many ppl can take?

The B9TL can take 85, including 20 standees. E400 can take 88, 24 standees.
Standing area is about the size of the wright 3000 series.

Don't call other people names please. It seems like I only get to observe nowdays and find out that the one who is correcting me all along is a fluke. I don't have a Christian name to be honest, the account name just come from the email address. Now that you did this, I had no choice but to reply in such a manner. You won't want others to call you names, will you?

Miss taking SBS bendies on 18 and 290. I remember that SBS988Y had single seats at the rear. The rear also very quiet compared to O405G. SBS should keep those bendies for townlink and feeder service.
