  I guess it might be Sentosa as possible due to they're already have King Long buses in the Island~~

  But I won't expect that SBS Transit or SMRT as possible to take over this bus~~

  OT: Spotted a few new China buses under S'pore American Sch buses fleet. They were Sun Long (pronounced as Soon-Long), if I'm not wrong. The buses were damn cool with the design, especially the back.

  Maybe that's why SMRT Buses still want to keep the Yutong under wraps. They might want to test it alongside with King Long to see what they really want. Both are big names in China.

  There's only 1 Yutong SMRT bus here right? What testing are you referring to?

  I rather SBST or SMRT had bought that CNG OC demo.It really looked so european-ish and so cool.A pity that both the operators chose not to buy it.

  The trend right now is towards regional buses that can be purchased and get support from closer to home. It's to keep the operating cost low too.

  Yah. Overall parts arrangements that are the same as SBS Transit and SMRT.

  SBS Transit
  -CCTVs same as KUBs
  -Handgrips same as B9TLs

  SMRT
  -A/C (the black thing that blows the a/c out) same as Habits & OCs
  -Front seats arrangement near exit doors same as OCs.
