Mother of ALL JAMs in at Checkpoint

Expand so what. the roads leading into woodlands and the causeway itself is still the same.

can't be we build a 16 lane dual carriageway onto the causeway. Ultimately there is still national defence priorities.

ask ourselves...are we or our kids be willing to work as ica officers and other auxiliary officers?

expand 5x infrastructure...manpower need to expand at least 15x because of 3 rotating shifts

Ya, even have 100 counters also no use, when all cars from the 100 counters merge into one road.

You see why our roads always heavy and slow traffic, due to 4 lanes merge into 2 lanes or 2 lanes merge into 1 lane, sure create super slow traffic on the road.

Rather blaming the road, i always blame drivers.

Usually after i moved off, 500m behind me had NO cars.

Both drivers and road also can affect the flow of the traffic la. If the road design is stupid, no matter how good or bad drivers are, traffic still slow and heavy.

The point is there is also career progression possibility.  Upgrade to airport, MoM or ICA-HQ etc. No such possibility with Grab unless switch from Mazda 2 to Alphard.

Checkpoint expand 5X? Sure or not? Even after expansion but if counter no open all also no use la.

Anyway, think there is still plenty of space for checkpoint to expand, after those SERS HDB flats got tear down. Now those flats still around.

Ya lor, all BS.. even now, the throughput is not maximised because the counters are never fully open. Only 3 or 4 counters per zone. Real stupid. Or maybe some crony is crying for some project to keep the cashflow moving

True, other than have career progression but also have bonus and CPF contribution and other staff benefits. Surely better than Grab.

Exactly 

Think got O-level or Nitec can apply for ica job up to sergeant liao. No need be scholar

Surely it pays better w gahmen benefits, 13th mth salary & job security than a gig economy job
