However, PMDs and scooters have since then become devices used by many to serve their own needs such as to roam around Singapore, deliver food or even as a form of transport to work. According to Cheng (2019), big companies like McDonald’s and Foodpanda have started using PMDs in their daily operations of food deliveries and have been continuing to do so.

The drilling of 16 boreholes was done to find a suitable condition for the line to be constructed, either tunneling under nature reserve or skirting around it. An environmental impact assessment was done after the drilling work and it shows a moderate impact if alleviation measures were taken. When being questioned whether the statement is true, LTA remains quiet. LTA also fails to provide the frequency of animal sightings before and after the work is done. As the authority fails to provide sufficient information, it worries the nature group thus questions are being compiled and hope LTA would provide assurance and address their concern about the enviro...
