I'm stumped! how about everything in singapore all run by one organization. It would be the death of service excellence.

If all train operation were to come under one company, I think they should as well merge all the three together. Reason is simple... during a breakdown of train service, the other alternative to move the mass must be buses. But how are you going to manage it if all bus belongs to your competitor that's beyond your control? Therefore, train and bus together are inseparable.

Here's my 2cents of what the Govt "should" do to have competitive competition in public transports.

1. Put all train operations under one company, preferably SMRT but SMRT has to give up all bus operations totally to be fair to SBS Transit/Comfort Delgro.

2. Have multiple bus operators so more choices and competitive services.

Under the above new competitive landscape, buses will be free totally to compete with train services. Viola... great for public commuters.... Cheers!

178, sell? A stock wouldnt be resilient for no reason, esp mkt is so volatile now. I believe the coming result will be better than previous. Of coz higher energy cost will eat into its profit but still will be profitable. While MRT is moving up, Comfort is moving down. This shows that investors are switching to MRT. Less ppl take cab, more ppl take MRT. They are also learning from HK MTR, leasing space to retailers. Another plus. I doubt the mkt will bash MRT in the near future. Smiley

Price stuck at between1.68-1.72. Waiting to collect or sell beyond the range.


As ten4one have mentioned: A merger or re-org of transport system will likely be the catalyst for price movement up or down.

well...those newly setup retail space along MRTs are for them to "cushion" the steep OIL price which SMRT has to pay ...so the govt will not give them excuses to raise MRT fares when OIL remain HIGH..and those token of fare increase is only facial or cosmetic to ease their burden by high OIL price...anyway...dun think SMRT can sustain for long their divident yield as long as OIL prices are high for longer term..and the alternative to offset it with retail renting income which govt has allowed them to setup...hee....any just my speculation for entertainment :))))

A merger or re-org of transport system will likely be the catalyst for price movement up or down :P
