In fact AMDEP side (SMRT) really need more DDs to cater for 854
etc.
Since KJDEP had always been taking in new DDs most of
the time and lately the B9TLs, it is good that they move
some DDs over to AMDEP so as to balance out the DDs between the 3
sides.
Somehow when 854 turned WAB a year back, I have not seen much
enhancements in 854's fleet to boost up the WAB quota except for
those 2-3 E500s. The number of old bendies still remained the same
thruout. The recent new B2 MAN A95 intakes did not help that much
too (probably because 969 needs them more). Ever since KJDEP moved
some B1 MAN A95s over to AMDEP, these 2 days the WAB quota for 854
did boost quite alot.
The problem is Amdep/Lydep take full control of 969 because of
BCM.So in order to enhanced 854 and 969,Other svc still in need of
DDs.
