Back to Singapore for 2 days. Took my children to take the MRT. To my surprised and horror, I can't buy stored value concession tickets for them because only Singapore students can buy or children under 7 + under 0.9m can buy. If I want to buy, have to go to transit link ticket office (which not all stations has) with their passports to apply. Then I went to those ticket machines to buy single trip. Another BIG shock next. There is NO children ticket to buy. All standard fare. WTF is that? I have NEVER travelled to a place where there is NO concession ticket for children. Why is Singapore transport like that? So until now, I haven't got my children the tickets because the ticket office when I passed by was not opened. Only open after 12pm and then close sometime midday and open a few hours next. Just ranting... Not a major issue but don't think it's fair for tourists. And my children are Singaporeans.... End up I take taxi better since they are charged adult fares.

I don't understand why the TP don't summon these flouting cars who jamm up the roads and yellow Box? Surely if TP summon them every day, these cars will come to their senses. So even if appeal....surely there come a time when the appeal must void for those frequent flouting parents. I don't get it...is it TP gave up summoning...and working with the school to get a win win solution? The New Paper Monday, Jan 30, 2012 On every
