BRT can't be done extensively.
I agree with the better environment in a car etc. etc. as already said....... but I think that owning a car is a luxury. If you want something comfortable, nice and luxurious, then be prepared to pay for it. It shouldn't be taken for granted.
So in order to reduce the number of cars on the road, traffic problems, reduce emissions - the government can make owning a car more expensive. At the same time, they should also improve the public transport system (which i think is pretty good already) to ensure access to more areas around the country. That way, the people aren't restricted from visiting places that are normally mainly accessible only by a car.
We dun mind off peak hr bus freq for residential area at 12 - 15 mins..
but they've to ensure it's smooth flow for buses.
On many occasion when i take buses,the bus drivers will not only drive slowly but will stop at every single bus stop,even when there is no commuters at the bus stop.
I remember on one occasion,the bus driver stop at an empty bus stop,open the door n wait for awhile,then close it n then continue the journey.I know the bus driver did this just to meet the stupid time schedule on time.There was a few Caucasian teenage gals on the bus too,after seeing all this,they were like "What the fuk"???? on their face.
Haha,i know how they feel,they must be thinking that the bus driver was seeing "ghost",thats why he stop at an empty bus stop n open the door to let the "ghost" come in.LOL!!!!!
You know,sometimes,i think its a good thing to let the PAP government bring in so many foreigners.So that when they return to their countries,they can gossip at how stupid Singapore n our PAP government are.(P.S.Although i hold Singapore IC,i no longer consider myself Singaporean.I am a democrats,an elite,i hold IC n stay in here just to earn money only,i have no obligation to this stupid country.)

Valid points. The schedule is fucked.
But if more foreigners hear Singapore is stupidly inviting them, more of them will come.

And i purposely crown myself as "elite",so that to let those miserable PAP ministers know how thick-skin n arrogant it is to called themself "elite" n give themselves the highest ministerial pay in the world.Especially that gay Lou Goh,beg LKY to give him the title "Emeritus SM Goh",.....LOL!!!!!
To tell u guys the truth,i also anyhow "take" money from my company.I treat the company money as my money also,i deserve it.Just like our dear PAP ministers anyhow take the taxpayers money n paid themselves high salaries.Cant blame me,got bad leaders set such bad example,oh well....:)

I think it is you that is stupid.
You don't know what is the difference between a bus driver and a country.
And you assume that the angmoh char bo also don't know.
Funny how when the new transport minister takes bus or mrt or lrt, someone will take his photos and the news will be very big. I think it is a good acting show

And i can tell u this,Ang Moh are much more intelligent than u think,they do know many stupid things they saw in this country "are connected" with the stupid government policies!!!
U know,when election that time,many Ang Moh thought that there will be significant changes in our politics.They eagerly want to buy the newspaper the day after the election,but later,they must have been disappointed.Oh well....a country rule by the Chinese are stupid(except Taiwan),and Chinese are stupid fuking race(Except me,although my IC state i am Chinese,but i am a democrats,an elite,i dont consider myself as Chinese,being the same race as LKY,LHL,n boot licker GCT are a shame...So i am not a Chinese)

very jia lat leh....your IC states you are a Chinese, but you don't consider yourself Chinese; you don't feel like you are a Chinese, but when you look at the mirror, what do you see? you proclaim to be a democrats, but where there is no republican outside of the US, who gives the sh it about democrats? you think you are an elite, but except for the PAP which practices elitism to the extreme, somemore you not part of the pap, so who gives a damn about elite?
is it the failure of the education system in Singapore? or the failure of the parents who never tell their children where their root is? or even the parents are confused?..ooops..

Dear Emeritus SM,
How are you?
Government should invest more in transportation.
We cry foul in crowded and stuffy trains, and i was thinking the trains are now going on strike too. Have we added trains since since 20 years ago? new trains are only coming in end of this year and we commuters have to tolerate the crowdedness as the population boomed. Someone rightly pointed out that the infrastructure is not adequate, and i totally agree.
But how did it come to this state. our 20 yr old trains are running so many more times a day now and i pray the one that i'm taking don't break down every morning. i use to think the train operators are laughing to the bank. but now, i think they and lta/gov(votes related) are worried that one day the whole transport system will just say, " i retire". Then we will really be a world class laughing stock.
lets see if the new trains coming in will solve capacity problems.
If the train operators are not releasing enough trains to solve capacity problems and are just saving costs, slap them. but if there are no more trains available, not even for maintenance, and there are still people on the platforms, slap our policy makers.
Wake Up!
