Dun just put the blame on SMRT for the poor crowd control. I was
there on Saturday morning at Pasir Ris MRT stn and also at airshow.
I witnessed how we Singaporeans behave.
Super senior staff at pasir ris stn doing nothing.
Inspector and fellow colleague smoking at the CEC bus waiting
area instead of crowd control.
Many MIB doing nothing. All super blur and sotong and doesnt knw
how to react when hunfreds of people running and chasing to get
onto the bus. Including a officer ( 2 craps on his shoulders, simi
ranking huh?)
FT Indian Mata SGT shouting at people who are in the proper
waiting area.
Bus captain who didnt follow proper instructions and let people
board the bus at the alighting stop instead of boarding area.
Everyone to be blame.
Most important: SINGAPOREANS.
Why I say this? Because of KIASU. KIASI.
If there were proper boarding and alighting berths, proper
queues being formed at PSR Ctrl. Do you think ppl would behave this
way ?
If the buses were able to handle the load effectively, would ppl
behave this way ?
Think about it. Many ppl complaint about the taxis jamming up the
road at the site. If the Shuttle buses were able to clear the load
at PSR (Or even EXPO), will ppl choose to take taxis ???
AA2004 and AA2006 didnt have shuttle bus problems. Queue was
short and buses arriving within seconds of the bus departed.
Why did SIngapore AirShow 2008 have the problem ? You claimed
that it was all due to how Singaporeans behave.. Am i ask, how come
we dont have this problem in the past ??
