Bro,
Just leave the matters behind, if he likes the indies, let him
be. His writing already give a bad image about Singapore, not only
the TDs here, in my opinion. If you believe or dun believe any god
in the universe, he sure will get his words to the god's ear. Our
life must still go on. Do you think our Transport ministry not
aware? Pap no sleeping so as WP.
I prefers to follow this kind of debate, for the CR, someday he
will still RIP, so why so agitated by his writing. We just need to
huat, that's all.

SINGAPORE: ComfortDelGro has posted a second
quarter net profit of $65.0 million, up 8.5 per cent
year-on-year.
Revenue rose 5 per cent to $884.9 million.
The world's second largest land transport company says its taxi
business accounted for the bulk of the increase in sales.
For the half year ended June 30, 2012, net profit grew 7.7 per cent
to $118.5 million, while revenue increased by 5.7 per cent to $1.74
billion.
That brought earnings per share for the first half to 5.66
cents.
ComfortDelGro's Chief Executive Officer, Mr Kua Hong Pak, said: "We
continued to grow our revenue and profit in the quarter despite the
impact of cost pressures, particularly in the Singapore bus and
rail businesses. We will continue to work hard at growing our
topline while staying vigilant on costs."
Currently, overseas ventures account for 40.8 per cent of group
revenue. ComfortDelGro says it aims to derive 70 per cent of its
total revenue from overseas in the medium term.
Notably, overseas profit contribution accounted for 95.1 per cent
of group bus operating profit. Overseas bus operating profit
increased $1.2 million in the second quarter.
That has helped to mitigate, but not fully offset the operating
loss from its bus business in Singapore. The core scheduled bus
business under SBS Transit in Singapore suffered an operating loss
of $4.8 million in the second quarter on higher staff and
depreciation costs.
The company expects revenue from Singapore bus and rail to increase
from growth in rider-ship. It added that "in general pressures on
costs will continue to be felt."
It declared an interim dividend of 2.9 cents a share, up from 2.7
cents this time last year.
