Minister Khaw defends NParks' bicycles purchase
-
No one is responsible, accountable or to be blamed.
Just like what happened to the train breakdown.
When they made a boo boo, it is a honest mistake and move on.
When you commit a mistake, you go to jail.
No need to ask for them to explain cos they will not do it.
-
Let's move on.
-
Pity the cyclists.
40 km a day.
-
this one can move on.. up to 40km a day.. and on $2.2k bikes too!
-
can fold also... take bus chia
thing is... what abt overhaul? cannot be it can last you 15 yrs w/o any 1x overhaul
-
Can some cyclist enthusiast please explain to me whether it is more efficient and energy saving to cycle on a mountain bike than these kinds of foldable bikes.
I always thought the larger the wheel, the less effort to cycle.

$8 bypass means that everybody in Sg can afford this kind of surgery when they need it.
That's how good Sg is.

Lessons to be learnt from all high paid talents living in their ivory tower:
- Buying expensive and quality stuff is nothing to you with your salary.
- You forgot you are paid with the people money and the toy that you bought are also paid with people money.
- Sinkie are smarter than you think; they dun make noise just because of they are jealous of the bicycle price. If you are really internet savvy to link with the people, you will realised that the dept have screwed up in various area in procuring the bike. They have also made a fool with the silly reasons that were prepared for you to use.
In short, you have made a fool of yourself without making any effort to check whether the prepared answer is actually a joke.
I dun blamed you as all of you are pampered all these years with prepared speech that you are not even bothered to verify as you assume some one else should have done the check for you.
But, what you have said and defended have actually verified with Ah Kong wisdom that all of you have become seriously complacent and out of touch.
So, Ah Kong is still right but he is too disgusted to be bothered with all the humour that you have created every time you make a speech.

Nobody can answer me about the productivity of this brompton bike vs a mountain bike.
-
its time to rob NParks people on their patrol

Read the first comment by that lewis guy on the article.
He made a lot of interesting points.

No matter what lousy reason of only 1 quotation, the person in charge should have some sense to re-tender.
Unless the person is some ku ku who just want to clear the budget for this year.
But, we have a biggest ku ku to justify on how the tax payers money is wasted.
Simple waste of money and total incompetence for all party involved.
No no no, it just happen that this supplier is the only one that have a manpower that spend 24 hrs monitoring the geBiz and just out of nowhere there a tender for this and supplier is the only one in the whole world that know about this. People in the real world will know what happen lar. I think many is questioning not on do they need this bicycle but weather anything is wrong in the bidding/tendering procedure, thus trying to explain that it increase productivity dun help at all. Sound more like trying to shift the focus regarding the question raise here. -
who suck whose cock this time

Instead of defending the purchases he should be looking into the loopholes of the tendering process.

< Do they cycle 40km at one go or in a day's work? Bus drivers drive more than 10 hrs a day sitting. Will bus companies fit 'very good chairs' to give them comfort?Originally posted by Paem:Instead of defending the purchases he should be looking into the loopholes of the tendering process.
