The Workers' Party issued its response to the tragic accident, which claimed the lives of two young Singaporean SMRT maintenance staff, Nasrulhudin Najumudin and Muhammad Asyraf Ahmad Buhari.

Things are not looking up for Singapore's largest transportation company, SMRT, which manages the country's heaviest traffic MRT lines stretching along the North-South and East-West of the country. A stuttering start saw several train breakdowns just weeks after GE2016 and PM Lee Hsien Loong's appointment of former MND minister Khaw Boon Wan as the new Minister of Transport.

"It is with deep sadness that two SMRT staff, Nasrulhudin Bin Najumudin and Muhammad Asyraf Bin Ahmad Buhari, passed away today. At around 11am on 22 March, a signalling condition monitoring device near Pasir Ris Station was triggered, and maintenance teams from the Permanent Way and Signal departments were sent to investigate. The teams moved in a single file along the walkway beside the track to the investigation location. Unfortunately, during the process, the accident occurred. The safety of our people has always been the utmost priority and we are assisting the Police in their investigations into how the accident happened.

This afternoon, train service between Tanah Merah and Pasir Ris was stopped because of an accident that occurred at Pasir Ris MRT station. The accident resulted in the death of 2 SMRT's trainees. They were Singaporeans Nasrulhudin Najumudin, 26 and Muhammad Asyraf Ahmad Buhari 24. It is believed that they were hit by an oncoming train.

I am very agree to this writer who voice out we MRT commuters because I been in this situation before.I remember it was a peak hour morning when I was going to school.I was sitting on 'reserved seat'.When the train reached Jurong East Mrt station,the crowd swamp in.

This morning at about 10.15, I took a SMRT bus 859B (Licence plate no SMB 3149 X)at the bus stop opposite Blk 491 Admiralty Link. The driver, a Malay man in his twenties ( I couldn’t get his name)seemed reluctant to continue and kept looking towards the back of the bus. After about a minute of waiting, he walks towards the back and tells a female passenger who is standing to have a seat. The passenger is carrying a toddler. Despite her declining, he politely tries to persuade her to sit down, telling her that it may be uncomfortable and dangerous to stand. This prompts another passenger to persuade others to give up their seats. Someone gives up his seat and the passenger sits down.

SMRT was found to have held back train breakdown information this morning (15 March 2016) The listed conglomerate in Singapore’s transport duopoly did not update their Twitter and Facebook account as they usually use these outlets as official channels to inform commuters of train delays. According to twitter accounts, there was a train fault along the Circle Line this morning around 8.10am and train stations had become unbearably crowded.

SMRT ban the driver for accidentally pressing on the ON CALL button. The driver call and apologize for pressing wrongly yet SMRT suspend the driver. The driver pay 365 days rental, even when sick no drive, rental still keep paying. Do u think SMRT action is fair?

I was boarding a transcab this morning around 7.40 am from the east to work to go airport . Upon telling my destination the cab driver told me off cab only go arrival and departure halls as I want to go T1 new car park due to my Brother on walking stick. He was so rude until I asked him if he still want to take me then he kept quiet. The whole journey was so throat cutting as he purposely moved from lane to lane and it was so dangerous putting 3 lives in danger. He then shouted where to go. I think our cab service industry is not at par.
