Thank you LTA👍

S'pore has one of the best and most affordable public transport systems in the world. It's so obvious that PAP is the only competent and effective party in s'pore.❤❤

[@huangzb8060]

How much are paid by PAP to promote for them?

[@JustAnotherFish543]

​@@huangzb8060 Yeah, i agree that PAP has done nothing since SG independence. The only thing they have done is turn SG from a fishing village to a modern, clean and beautiful city it is today. This is nothing compared to WP's achievement of getting in the news for one of their ministers caught lying. I agree that WP will indeed serve SG better than anything pap has done in the last 58 years!

who is the albert einstein who build the underground bicycle lot? have they made a case study on the practicality of this implementation? 1) What happens if its full? Do i bring back my bicycle all the way back home? 2) What stops from people hoarding all their bicycles here - used or not used? Who is going to keep track and remove them? 3) So during peak hours not only do commuters need to tolerate each other, they need to make space for cyclists to enter the mrt passes? 4) These stations will have PMD/bicycle track marks and smell like tar? Thank you LTA for the genius scholarly design!

[@JustAnotherFish543]

Just because you hate it means they should remove this feature. Stop being selfish.

Can't wait to catch out transport minister when we ride the train in June!

[@hannah5245]

[@ngzy3561]

23rd June 2024.

[@soonsl_muffin_damien]

21st June open house from 10am to 9pm

[@deschan2246]

Built not base on need or demand !!! Leaving perpetual high operating n maintenance cost for future generations to shoulder/bear is irresponsible. Not the work of responsible government!!!

[@JustAnotherFish543]

That's why you should gather your friends to vote out the PAP~~~ oh wait, i forgot you don't have any.

“Prices will go up,” the then Minister Mentor assured, adding,“I think he loved the view and felt happy about our asset enhancement.” (Don't sell your HDB flat, Mr Lee tells resident, Straits Times, 7 Nov 2011)

[@deschan2246]

Most of the time empty !!!😂 Investment n operating cost is high. Another Non Recoverable Investment!!!

[@JustAnotherFish543]

That's what your father said when he divorced your mother

[@martinmisty866]

Singaporeans should take back the money from these packages but not feel obligated to support the PAP in the coming polls.

[@martinarchie2902]

Pap=out of touch gov

[@mars-uy8lr]

Why do u always comment about pap? If they r out of touch they will not be governing until now and Singapore will not be developed. Just look at the MRT. More stations are built for the people's conveniences to move to every corner of Singapore.

[@wtIUpITp1E0wMsydV19c0FUmIXvCU]

Yeah vote for Trump then

[@gavincheng0394]

Do you want to consider migrating to other countries since you think PAP is out of touch?
