In the end, it is one of his company that proved that he is right.
It is the same for one incident where no camera was installed in the platform.
Are they cost-costing to the extent of compromising the safety of the passengers ?
What about the switching off of the SMRT air con during operating hours ?
To be honest, the more terrorist perceive a country to be against them, the more they would want to "terrorise" the country.
One good case study. Brazil. I don't see terror targeting Rio or Sao Paulo...
It is the fear that truly binds us.

What is the content of last paragraph? Please, I think I shall sue you or hope to see another SQ 006 incident while you are onboard. No, why you are not one of the passenger on this Eurostar in Belgium?

why so troublesome, as long as for a guy, married the right elites' gal, you go up and for girl just marry the right PM, you go up too.
Since singapore is base on meritocracy, as long as you are the elites, you will alway be an elites or higher elites, and that answer why people on the top are getting high pay and also enjoy life...all because of that kind of meritocracy created by the govt organisation, so from there, they set an example for all other organisations, be it public or private, the top get more.

I see that angel has ditched her meimei avatar for an aunty one......
but the mentality is still the same....
elitism and meritocracy are poles apart, at two different ends, and these values do not compliment or concur with each other.

she posted a lot, but all are of quantity not quality posts. since when you last read of a post which is of higher quality one?
I posted on www.expatsingapore.com the newspaper report of the Swiss guy Oliver Fricker Charged with the MRT Grafitti as appeared on Sunday Times
Guess what? The Singaporean moderator of expatsingapore.com deleted the post because he is so pro-white an doesn't want to offend the expat (ie. white) community. Shameful.
Why are there Singaporeans who are so sycophantic to whites?

Your utter stupidity bedevils me. Eurostar? Cockhead, it is just a simple InterCity train. Don't try to act smart by coming out with sophisticated jargon when you don't know a thing about European railroads.
Since when did relating it with Switzerland(with him being a Swiss national) is off-topic? And oh thanks for cursing me. I hope it happens back to you, tenfold. Go ahead and sue. Go ahead. Sue me for libel. I await the judge's verdict. Most likely he would throw the case out in your face.
20 years old, yet with the childish mentality of a 6 year-old. What a joke.

Singaporeans better form patrol groups to watch and protect all the MRT depots in SIngapore.
By Adam Gabbatt from Guardian
Singapore is seeking to extradite a British man accused of spray-painting a subway carriage last month.
A court has issued an arrest warrant for Lloyd Dane Alexander for allegedly breaking into a train depot and vandalising a subway carriage on 16 May with Oliver Fricker, a Swiss national, the Singapore police force said today.
Singapore has a reputation for meting out severe punishments for relatively minor crimes. Vandalism carries a maximum fine of SG$2,000 (£980) or up to three years in jail, in addition to three to eight strokes of a wooden cane.
Police said Alexander has fled Singapore and authorities will seek to extradite him, depending on the extradition treaty Singapore has with the country where he is eventually located. Officers did not give details of Alexander’s age, profession or possible whereabouts.
The Straits Times reported that the Briton had left the country for Hong Kong before the incident was reported to police on 19 May.
Fricker, 33, was charged with trespassing into a protected place and two charges of vandalism on Saturday. He is currently on bail, with a preliminary hearing set for 21 June.
The two men are alleged to have cut through the fence of the SMRT rail depot before spray-painting graffiti on one side of a train.
Singapore caned American teenager Michael Fey for vandalism in 1994 – ignoring pleas for leniency by then US president Bill Clinton – in a case that drew international attention to the country’s harsh punishments. – guardian.co.uk
Here's what he'll need paint over next.

i think the train nutters would be the first volunteers to protect their precious trains?
Its quite a wake up call to SMRT, I can imagine what happened at their office the day the first report appeared in the papers. How many phonecalls and urgent meetings went out, and how to formulate a response for it. And that is the best they came up with.
I LOLed more to read that LTA tai chi the task back to SMRT, instead of giving them a hand. Its predictable, however this showcases the general attitude of singaporeans and how companies run in singapore regardless private, glc, or public.
