SINGAPORE - Visual and ultrasonic inspections of repaired tracks along the East-West Line (EWL) have shown no abnormalities since regular train services resumed after a six-day disruption in September, rail operator SMRT said on Oct 11. Ultrasonic inspections involve the use of high-frequency waves to check for faults or defects. On Oct 1, trains resumed operations between Buona Vista and Jurong East stations on the EWL. But until Oct 4, they ran under a temporary speed limit of 40kmh over the affected stretch between Dover and Clementi stations in the direction of Jurong East. The lower speed limit was in place as part of SMRT's «standard operating procedure following extensive works on the running rails», the operator said. Trains usually travel at speeds of 60kmh to 80kmh. SMRT said it returned train services to their full speed along the affected stretch from Oct 5. On Oct 11, SMRT told The Straits Times that as a precaution, it had been conducting regular visual and ultrasonic inspections along the affected stretch after lifting the speed limit, and «no abnormalities related to the incident were detected».
SINGAPORE - Hillary O'Sullivan, 13, is living a life less ordinary. The Singaporean was invited to perform at Bhutan's Royal Highland Festival, which ran from Oct 23 to 24, 2023. Hillary was then 12 and a student at St Joseph's Institution International (SJII). She was the first foreigner and youngest performer to be invited to participate in the South Asian country's national cultural festival since its inception in 2016. She played the piano for Bhutan's King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck at the event. Her Bhutan adventure was documented in the short film The Girl And Her Piano, which premiered at a private screening in Singapore on Oct 8. The 11-minute film, directed and produced by Hillary's mother Elaine Lim, highlights the urgent environmental issues in the Himalayan region, with a focus on the threat to Bhutan's glaciers. Told through the eyes of the Bhutanese people and narrated by Hillary, it was self-funded, said Ms Lim, 50, creative director of local photography studio White Room Studio. There are plans for the documentary to be streamed online, added the first-time film-maker.
SINGAPORE - A district judge acquitted two men accused of graft-related offences linked to a former Land Transport Authority (LTA) deputy group director on Oct 11, after finding the statements taken by the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) «inaccurate and unreliable». Mr Pay Teow Heng, 56, was accused of giving Henry Foo Yung Thye bribes in the form of loans totalling $350,000 in 2017 and 2018. Mr Pay was a director at construction firm Tiong Seng Contractors (TSC) at that time, and allegedly did so to advance the business interest of TSC with LTA. Mr Pek Lian Guan, 59, then TSC's managing director, was accused of intentionally aiding Mr Pay in giving the bribes. The prosecution said that LTA had engaged TSC to construct an MRT station under a contract initially valued at $315 million, adding that Mr Pay was Foo's counterpart in the contract. In September 2021, Foo, then 47, was sentenced to 5½ years' jail for taking about $1.24 million in bribes in the form of loans from several contractors and subcontractors.
