Frankly speaking, at the time of the takeover, it didn't affect me
much as I was still small. I did not even notice what was happening
until I was Primary 3, in 2000. I noticed that the year before,
there were SBS buses but all of a sudden, just 1 week before I
moved into Choa Chu Kang, the buses changed to Tibs.
I was quite sad. In October 2003, there were talks on SBST giving
up the NEL. This was a very happy occasion for me. If SBS gives up
the NEL, there would be a chance that CCK would be given back to
SBS. Sadly, nothing happened...till now, I'm still waiting for SBS
to take over Choa Chu Kang.
[b]I can SWEAR that SBS did a better job when they were having
CCK.Those were the CCK services' heydays. CCK received the 2nd
townlink service. 190 had a full DD fleet. For some reason, TIBS
seem to hate CCK...
btw, sbs&tibs, why did you like the takeover? Let me tell you
sbs&tibs, you wouldn't be very happy if you're living in CCK. A
lot of services are being mistreated. [/b]
Well.....Im sure SMRT Bus is trying its best given its pathetic
fleet....The proportion of high capacity buses is much lower than
that of SBST, SBST has roughly 700 ADDs, which is ard 45% of its
fleet size, excluding the VO2-Ax while TIBS has ard 290 units only,
which is less than SBST.
Do pride CCK for still having one of the most frequent svcs in
S'pore, svc 190.
