CEO stops in her tracks: SMRT accepts offer of resignation

Saw Phaik Hwa will however assist the investigation teams and the Committee of Inquiry reviewing the causes of the train operations disruptions.

According to SMRT, Ms Saw said that she acknowledged the time was right for the Board to look at new leadership for the organisation.

Ms Saw said:

I have had the privilege of leading a group of very committed and loyal staff over the last nine years. I feel it is now time for SMRT to bring in new leadership and take the organisation to the next level. This is the culmination of a discussion I began with the Chairman in early December.

I also feel it is important for me to stay on and support the relevant inquiries, and the transition to new leadership. I will also be supporting Ek Kia as he leads the organisation through its transition to a new CEO.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
