Third train disruption this week; Delay along NSL and EWL on Thursday morning
Published on 2018-04-19 by Martha Soezean For the third time consecutively this week, after disruptions on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Singapore Mass Rapid Transport (SMRT) had a train service disruption on Thursday morning (19 Apr). For the delay that happened again along the North South Line (NSL) and East West Line (EWL) like on Tuesday, SMRT again failed to give official information, contrary to so many tweets it posted yesterday on the delay between Tampines and Pasir Ris. At 7:54am Lee Poh posted photos and comments on TATA SMRT, showing crowded Yishun MRT station: Lee Poh wrote: Yishun station. Passenger keep come in. Accdicent waiting to happen. No announcement. Welcome gift for new CEO Other passengers also posted their information on TATA SMRT on the EWL delay: Angie Lim wrote: West bound train stuck at Eunos also. Finally moved after 10mins of stalling. No announcement or explanation at all. Well done smrt. Syazana Liyana Lopez wrote: Currently on EWL, announced in train there’s a train fault ahead. East bound train. Announced in between Boon Lay and Lakeside Station. Est delay 5mins. And Danny Leong, answering to Syazana Liyana Lopez's post mentioned the delay on NSL: Danny Leong wrote: NSL also the same at abt 8.15 to 8.30am from YT to JE. They kept mute. Commuters also posted information and their complaints on Twitter: Despite the queries for official information from passengers the SMRT kept silent on its social media platforms. continue reading here : https://www.theonlinecitizen.com/201...rsday-morning/ Very good service disruptions is still service disruption . Why SMRT ; LTA & Ministry of Transport and state media all keep quiet ? Shame on all of you . And you guys still want to increase fares ? How do you expect us to trust state media ? So you still want to vote for PAP ?

Re: 2 young lives lost
Was previous rail industry experience not one of the criteria in selecting new SMRT CEO?
April 20, 2018 SMRT’s confirmation that they have appointed yet another ex-Chief of Defence Force after a supposedly global search has garnered criticism from several quarters. The new CEO, Neo Kian Hong, who will be replacing Desmond Kuek is the same man who succeeded Kuek as Chief of Defence Force while they were both in the Singapore Armed Forces. The pair even took on a similar career route, after retiring from the military, becoming permanent secretaries in Government ministries before joining SMRT. Neo’s appointment as the incoming CEO of SMRT comes after months of speculation that Kuek will be stepping down after a nearly six year tenure at the corporation that was marked by controversy – from the deaths of two trainees who were struck by an oncoming train, to the unprecedented flooding of an MRT tunnel and a collision between two trains that injured over 30 individuals, besides countless train service breakdowns. The appointment of Neo has caused some netizens to raise their eyebrows since both Neo and his outgoing CEO Kuek do not have prior rail industry experience. continue reading here : http://theindependent.sg/was-previou...-new-smrt-ceo/ I guess it will still be the same even with the new CEO .

Re: 2 young lives lost
SMRT defends Neo Kian Hong's appointment, cites new chief's 'personal values' and 'leadership qualities'
21 Apr 2018 04:57PM (Updated: 21 Apr 2018 05:00PM) SINGAPORE: Transport operator SMRT on Saturday (Apr 21) defended the appointment of its next group chief executive Neo Kian Hong, citing the senior civil servant's "personal values" and "leadership qualities" as key reasons for his appointment. In a Straits Times forum letter on Saturday, SMRT's vice-president for corporate communications Margaret Teo outlined the "key criteria and considerations" in selecting SMRT's new chief. These were: "Personal values, leadership qualities, relevant engineering knowledge, track record in operations and people management, and the ability to collaborate with multiple stakeholders." "An executive search firm was engaged to conduct a comprehensive global search based on the selection criteria," wrote Ms Teo. "The interview panel finally decided on Mr Neo Kian Hong as they were particularly impressed with his personal values and leadership qualities," she wrote, adding that industry experience "was considered in the process". Ms Teo's letter was in response to another Straits Times forum letter published on Thursday, in which its author Dr Michael Loh Toon Seng said that he was "disappointed" that SMRT had chosen "another chief executive" without "relevant experience". Mr Neo, 54, is currently the Permanent Secretary for Defence Development and also a former chief of defence force. He was also appointed a non-executive director of Singapore Technologies Engineering last June. "With due respect, how did the relevant decision-makers end up appointing another SMRT chief with zero experience in the transport industry, zero experience working in the private sector and zero experience at the board level of any company, let alone a $1 billion company?" wrote Dr Loh. In response, Ms Teo said that a "key attribute" the interview panel took into account was an understanding of local public transport needs. "Of course, a key attribute considered in the final selection was the candidate's understanding of the needs of Singapore's commuters and public transport system," she wrote. The panel also recognised Mr Neo's engineering qualifications, said Ms Teo. "The panel recognised that Mr Neo has engineering qualifications and can be well supported by a team of committed and professional rail engineers," she wrote. "As the chairman of DSO National Laboratories and the Defence Science and Technology Agency, he has knowledge and good experience in building strong engineering, system acquisition and maintenance capabilities." Therefore SMRT decided to give the position "to a Singaporean with strong leadership qualities and the right heart to serve SMRT and, most importantly, our commuters", she wrote, adding that Mr Neo also had the ability to keep morale high and motivate staff. Mr Neo's appointment will take effect on Aug 1 as current SMRT chief Desmond Kuek steps down. Mr Kuek, who is also a former chief of defence force, will bow down from his position after five-and-a-half years at the helm of the beleaguered transport company.

Re: 2 young lives lost
SMRT turns defensive; claims new CEO meets key criteria amid widespread criticism
April 21, 2018 SMRT defended the appointment of it’s next CEO Neo Kian Hong today, amid widespread criticism that the transport operator has hired yet another ex-General who does not have prior rail industry experience, that too after a global search. In a letter published today, the corporation’s vice-president for corporate communications Margaret Teo listed the “key criteria and considerations” the organisation relied on in selecting its new chief executive. These requirements are: “Personal values, leadership qualities, relevant engineering knowledge, track record in operations and people management, and the ability to collaborate with multiple stakeholders.” Teo revealed that a recruitment agency was engaged to help identify a group of candidates who match SMRT’s requirements: “An executive search firm was engaged to conduct a comprehensive global search based on the selection criteria. The interview panel finally decided on Mr Neo Kian Hong as they were particularly impressed with his personal values and leadership qualities.” SMRT’s representative was responding to criticism over the appointment of 54-year-old Neo – particularly a letter written by Dr Michael Loh Toon Seng who had asked: “With due respect, how did the relevant decision-makers end up appointing another SMRT chief with zero experience in the transport industry, zero experience working in the private sector and zero experience at the board level of any company, let alone a $1 billion company?” Replying that industry experience was also “considered in the process”, Teo added: “Of course, a key attribute considered in the final selection was the candidate’s understanding of the needs of Singapore’s commuters and public transport system. “The panel recognised that Mr Neo has engineering qualifications and can be well supported by a team of committed and professional rail engineers. “As the chairman of DSO National Laboratories and the Defence Science and Technology Agency, he has knowledge and good experience in building strong engineering, system acquisition and maintenance capabilities.” continue reading here : http://theindependent.sg/smrt-turns-...ead-criticism/

Chief Operations Officer of SMRT Trains arrested for drink driving at Woodlands Checkpoint
April 21, 2018 SMRT’s chief operations officer for rail was arrested at Woodlands Checkpoint this morning for drink driving. One of the group’s top executives, 50-year-old Alvin Kek was just promoted to chief operations officer for rail from his former post as senior vice-president for rail operations two months ago, on 1 Feb 2018. Kek, who has been working for SMRT since 2013, presently oversees rail operations along the North-South and East-West Lines, the Circle Line and the Bukit Panjang LRT network. Prior to his employment with SMRT, he was a colonel and a chief engineering officer with the Singapore Armed Forces, where he spent 14 years. SMRT’s vice-president for corporate communications Margaret Teo told reporters: “This matter is currently under police investigation. It is not appropriate for the company to comment as it concerns a personal matter. We request that the privacy of our staff, especially under the circumstances of his recent bereavement, be respected.” It is believed that Kek’s father passed away recently. continue reading here : http://theindependent.sg/chief-opera...ds-checkpoint/

Re: 2 young lives lost
SMRT: Know when to go
Sense And Nonsense by Tan Bah Bah April 22, 2018 At his press conference to announce his retirement from politics in 2015, one of the earlier Transport Ministers Raymond Lim made an interesting and somewhat revealing remark. He said Lee Kuan Yew once told him helming the transport portfolio was “a thankless job…but someone here has to do it”. Obviously, Lim fast discovered he was not that someone. He served as minister from 2006 to 2011. His successor Lui Tuck Yew also found he was not cut out to be Transport Minister. He took over from Raymond Lim and left in 2015 and is currently Singapore’s ambassador to Japan. But not before he showed glimpses of how leaders in difficult appointments ought to try and get the public on their side, however tough the job. Communicate, communicate and communicate. Those news pictures and spot coverage of Lui riding the MRT helped a lot to show angry commuters that the minister did make an effort to go to the ground as part of his duties, to check out the situation, taking the trains and talking to passengers. Commuters expected those running the system to feel their frustrations and understand the daily problem of coping with delays and overcrowdedness. The trains are still overcrowded, by the way. Lui came across as sincere and willing to serve. When he resigned, few cheered. Compare that with the era of ex-SMRT CEO Saw Phaik Hwa. I quote Christopher Tan who wrote in The Straits Times: “…complaints of packed trains and rising frequency of breakdowns started as Singapore’s population soared. SMRT tried to cope but the ride had turned massively. In 2011, after two serious breakdowns, Ms Saw left the SMRT.” She was with the SMRT for nine years, nine years too long. I doubt she left voluntarily. The public outcry against the breakdowns and the way Singapore commuters were treated as sardines or cattle in the corporation’s obsession with profits – at the expense of basic human comfort – raised the question of why she was not sacked earlier. continue reading here : http://theindependent.sg/smrt-know-when-to-go/
