  • SMRT: Looking Into Viral Bus Fare Dispute Involving Foreign Driver

    SMRT: Looking Into Viral Bus Fare Dispute Involving Foreign Driver

    SMRT said on its Facebook page: “We apologise for the inconvenience caused to all affected passengers.”

    The company added in its statement that all bus captains attend English classes to improve their ability to understand and converse in the language.

    “They are also encouraged to seek help from other passengers if they do encounter communication difficulties. So please help where you can,” said SMRT.

    The Facebook user also added that one of the children who paid for the bus fare was 0.86m tall.

    According to TransitLink’s website, children up to a height of 0.9m who are accompanied by an adult may travel for free.

    The Facebook post has been making the rounds on social media, with nearly 2,000 shares, and has received a mix of reactions from netizens.

    One user, Vince Viknesh J’eg Pillay, said the ability to communicate in English should have been a basic requirement for bus captains.

    “It can lead to disastrous consequences should an emergency arise and the driver is not able to communicate with the passengers,” the user commented.

  • Foreign SMRT Driver Don’t Understand English, Own Company’s Child Fare Policy, Refused To Drive

    Foreign SMRT Driver Don’t Understand English, Own Company’s Child Fare Policy, Refused To Drive

    Driver went on STRIKE, did not want to continue the journey and all of us had to change to the next 969 bus. Waste all of the passenger’s fare and time.. Just because 2 small kids (4YRS OLD & 2 YRS OLD) who was forced to pay bus fare but the driver can’t tell how much is the fare in ENGLISH. If you can’t speak English well… at least know the basics. You can’t come to our country & expect us to speak your language. Brainless.

    And as for you SMRT.. Number 1, please send your FOREIGN drivers for a basic English Speaking course to interact with passengers who can’t speak in Chinese. Number 2, please revise your “Child Bus Fare” requirements.. now year 2017 going 2018 already.. All children below 7 years are tall already.. So please uh.. 😑😑😑

    Last pic is one of the 3 kids that have to pay for the bus fare.. as measured, she is only 86cm..

  • Should Food Delivery Services Here Have 2 Delivery Boxes For Halal And Non-Halal?

    Should Food Delivery Services Here Have 2 Delivery Boxes For Halal And Non-Halal?

    China’s Meituan stirred up controversy online after announcing that it will begin offering separate logistics infrastructure for halal food, causing Chinese netizens to condemn the company for “discriminating against” non-Muslims while also worrying about the “rise of Islam” in their country.

    Meituan couriers on bikes will now be armed with two delivery boxes, a normal one for non-halal food and a smaller one for halal food. Netizens viewed the change as discriminatory and vowed that they will delete the app en masse.

    In Singapore, food delivery services like Ubereats, Foodpanda, Deliveroo and several others are the bike couriers we see day to day on the streets delivering food both (halal and non-halal) to their destinations.

    These couriers store their delivery items inside a bag with their own company name imprinted on it. They do not carry two delivery boxes like what Meituan’s is trying to implement.

    However is not clear though if the bag has compartments inside to separate non-halal from halal food. Or are there dedicated riders to deliver only halal food and only non-halal food? If not, should Singapore follow what Meituan is doing to safeguard the sanctity of minority food?

    We also know that there are Malay riders who do not mind sending orders or food that are not halal. Can we hope for a change to this in the near future?

  • China’s Warship Liaoning Has 10 Cafeterias With 20 Ethnic Minorities On Board

    China’s Warship Liaoning Has 10 Cafeterias With 20 Ethnic Minorities On Board

    Last weekend, China is opened up its aircraft carrier Liaoning to the public for the first time. The ship arrived in Hong Kong on Friday (July 7), accompanied by two destroyers and a frigate. Only 2,000 tickets for the tour at the weekend were handed out, leaving many who had lined up for hours disappointed. But for the lucky few, the visit is a peek into a highly specialised community, one that works, eats and sleeps together in a maze of hallways and rooms, surrounded by some of the most sophisticated technology and weapons in the Chinese military.

    There are more than 3,800 rooms in the ship, including ones for sleeping, eating, exercise and laundry. There’s also the mess hall and even a store, where sailors can buy snacks and everyday items. For security reasons, every sailor carries a photo ID, which must be swiped to enter areas. Access is restricted according to a sailor’s assigned department. Men and women live apart, and fingerprint scanners restrict entry to the women’s quarters. Most sailors are given single beds about 1m wide and 2m long.

    With nearly 20 ethnic minorities on board, it’s varied. The ship’s crew eat in 10 cafeterias, including ones specially designed for Muslims. They are offered four appetisers, six main courses and two desserts, going through two to three tons of food per day. When the crew really need to stretch out, the flight deck is turned into a makeshift soccer pitch. There is also an annual basketball competition, with 15 teams competing.

     

    Editors note:

    The Chinese Navy can accept 20 ethnic minorities. The RSN cannot even accept one because its ships don’t have halal kitchens. Which one is more inclusive? Hendak seribu daya, tak nak seribu daleh kan. They won’t be ‘losing face’ so to say if they employ a handful of Malays on board because everyone knows that Malays are just a small group in Singapore. We are the minorities and that perhaps may not be changing anytime soon.

    What if food was not the issue here since there are halal combat ration already available in SAF. Are they still questioning our loyalty? Still having doubts in Malays in Singapore? Maliki Osman dan Yacoob Ibrahim diam ke tentang isu ini?

    What are your thoughts?
