Ok, this is starting to fall into place. A King Long Bus is spotted in WLDEP 2 weeks ago. It only appeared for 2 days and then, it was not there. The bus is plain white. Is it the same bus that appeared in WLDEP?

Eh never read newspaper ah? Earlier on in Feb there was an article about CNG vehicles, in the article it was stated that 30 CNG King Longs were ordered by 2 private operators.

did you note the features on the King Long bus at WLDEP? e.g. WAB, looks like citybus or something...you know, the usual deal. maybe a pic too

but if this is true, it means SMRT acquring more MIC buses comparable to MIE buses.

But if the plain white CNG bus that tintinspartan said, was seen in WLDEP, then there's something that i'm not sure is, why would a private operators' bus appear in WLDEP?

I thought WLDEP is for SMRT buses only?
