A message, apparently sent to all SMRT cabbies, told them that there was an 'income opportunity' during the MRT breakdown last evening (Dec 15). SMRT has apologised and explained that it was a 'template message'.

The SMRT spokesperson said:

“We are sorry for the oversight. Our staff were using a template message, and we have since corrected it.”

Many STOMPers have, however, expressed anger at the message.

“Instead of empathizing with the public, SMRT sent out an 'income opportunity' alert to their taxi drivers to pick up passengers in affected area. I got upset at the way the message is phrased --- it's like making a mockery out of this situation.”

STOMPer Gary wrote:

“SMRT sent out this message to all their taxi drivers that the mrt breakdown is a great income earning opportunity.

"Coupled with the fact that the trains have broken down 2 days in a row, this is definitely unacceptable!“

A STOMPer wrote:

“See what SMRT told their cabbies!”

“Look at this good 'lobang' sent by SMRT to their cab driver.

"So much for a world class transport system!“

“SMRT Taxi company flashed this to all their drivers when the trains broke down.

"Maybe its normal for them but to most people this may be sarcastic."

“Despite the "word class" transportation system failure, the person in charge still had the cheek to sent a notification to cabbies regarding a "business oppurtunity". no subsidies but plain mockery. “

“I was on a SMRT cab yesterday (Dec 15) when the driver recieved this message from the head office saying this is the time for the cab to earn more money.“
