I think it's only right if SBSTransit gets this line, as the Circle Line, East West Line and North South Line are getting SMRT ahead of this competition...

SMRT - More on Train System. SMRT never train their drivers to drive slow. Just CHIONG AH !!!!!
SBSTransit - More on Bus Services System. SBS train their drivers to drive slow and just relax.

It doesn't seem right, you would realise that SMRT's bus system is almost as huge as SBSTransit's one... :O That's why I think SMRT is beginning to dominate the transport system.

Your Wrong on that though, Look at SMRT's Bus Fleet and compare it so SBST's Bus Fleet, You fill find a Big difference in numbers!
