Khaw sets new reliability target for rail network
Singapore

Speaking at the 4th Joint Forum on Infrastructure Maintenance organised by SMRT on Thursday, the Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure and Minister for Transport said that in 2015 - the year he replaced Lui Tuck Yew at the ministry - Singapore's MRT trains travelled an average of 133,000km between delays of more than five minutes.
