This dispute has been going on for quite a while. So suspect the brown envelopes had already been distributed from the owner (BTSG Group Holdings, the concessionaire) to the regime, but they have yet to deliver a fare increase, or subsidizations. The BMA wants to shift debt to the BTSG, in return for extending the gravy train (Rot Fai Na?) another 30 years.

 

Maybe they're (BJT) are holding out for more?

 

 

 "if the cabinet fails to act, they may be sued for dereliction of duty under Section 157 of the Criminal Code", the source quoted the PM as saying.
