  it seem like a lot of SLBP new KUB are also getting full YOG ads and doing YOG shuttle? looking at the cameo thread, seem like that from around 8th July onwards, there isnt any news of new KUBs (5218-5237) cameoing... i might be wrong though... but high chance that these KUB are being keep in depot and do some touch up/clean up to prepare for YOG... and that the reason why the SLBP merc are still running around and why SBS413 went to perm 183 and why VO2x are transferred from BBDEP earlier this week.

  
  according to the yog contract there was supposed to be 8 buses that can carry standee passengers. But it seems like they are using more than what's required and its likely that the other buses will be used for yog shuttle between competition venues.

  If only 8 K230s are contracted to do yog then we wont even see them running competition venues at all.. haha

  seem like these KUB will be used for MRT shuttles between MRT station and certain competition venue?

  If its confirmed that theres only 8 kub, then its unlikely that it will be used for MRT shuttles because the YOV internal village shuttles for participants would already make use of the bulk of the 8.

  now with more than ten buses in the YOG livery, its very likely they will be used for other routes on top of the YOV internal shuttle.

  think they will use for all purpose? YOV internal shuttle + external shuttle + mrt shuttles? spotted those AMK KUBs with give way sticker pasted on the front EDS area...
