He was was honoured as best chief financial officer at the Singapore Corporate Awards in 2015. On Sept 25 this year, he pleaded guilty to two of four charges of using his mobile phone to take upskirt videos of women. Chan was at [email protected] mall when he saw one of the victims at around 1.25 pm that day. He turned on the video recording app on his mobile phone and stood behind the victim on the upriding escalator. He held his phone under the victim’s dress and took an upskirt video for 2½ minutes. He did it a total of three times.

I was travelling with my maid down the escalator at a mall in Orchard. My maid was a few steps behind me and when I got off, the escalator made a terrible sound. I screamed at my maid to jump off and luckily she did if not her leg would have been injured or crushed. Despite jumping she still got some minor scratches but was obviously very shaken by the incident.

A woman was injured and taken to Changi General Hospital after the escalator she was on at Rivervale Mall stopped suddenly, causing her to tumble down more than 10 steps. The middle aged woman was taking the escalator at the mall in Sengkang from the second storey to the first floor, when it allegedly jerked to a stop.

We refer to your post, title “Escalator Step collapses @ White Sands nearly crushes Baby Pram” and wish to share with you that the safety of our shoppers at White Sands is of utmost importance to us and regular maintenance to the escalators are conducted as per requirements. We are working together with the authorities to investigate and the escalator will be closed until further notice.

An escalated block just dropped into the inner part of the escalator. Just a few seconds before a baby pram actually went off that escalator. There was a huge bang and everyone actually came by to see ensure that nobody actually get hurt.

According to some old-time Bishaners who grew up in the 2 small villages, "the entire Bishan was a cemetery & it was a huge one", "there were some areas in Bishan that I'll avoid at night". Many older MRT staff have also experienced unusual technical difficulties upon reaching the station. Perhaps Bishan station is spooked, and is one area we should avoid, since SMRT asserts that "there was no malfunction in escalator operations".

Escalators in MRT stations should not be functioning like staircases. The main issue is that those doing so are overburdening the escalators. Disallowing people from walking on the escalators will lead to normal usage of the machines, which would help in reducing the frequency of breakdowns.

I would like to bring to all of your kind attention to be extremely careful when using the escalator going up from takashimaya (outside of the talking hall, near the dbs and uob atm machine beside the florist shop). The hand railing suddenly going backwards direction instead of upwards it causes my mum to lose her balance and fall back to my helper n my helper also cannot hold her balance as she was holding still to the hand railing and is still moving backwards ended up my helper fall and for 30 secs she had a seizure and she was unconscious for few mins and when we wake her up she was just staring blankly and couldn't response to us couldn't talk to us at all
