The vendor would be the responsible party. At most, they would look into the reasons why the vendor was appointed.

medr135 Posted November 15, 2019 Posted November 15, 2019 What a lousy excuse to say it was subjected to vandalism!! If it was vandalised, did the TC made police report(s). Can the SPF confirm this and how many reports filed? If repeated vandalism, what actions did both TC and SPF took? Any CCTV footages???????? More intriguing is that why the TC gave this bloody excuse TWO WEEKS after the fire incident. Do they need to take such a long time to "invent" this excuse??? Why must it take an Opposition party to bring this matter up before the TC "explained" this problem???? Why can't they simply accept that a mistake was made and someone (or some parties involved) needed to be exposed and punished or must they wait till there were fatalities or serious injuries, otherwise if no one "complains" matter is shut out from the public? For such serious negligence, no MPs/Ministers cared enough to explain to the public?

artemov Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Passport can S$10 too? Paying $10 to re-register IC brings a stronger sense of pride and ownership of the card https://www.todayonline.com/voices/ic-re-registration-fee-manageable-most-engenders-sense-pride-and-ownership-ica We refer to Ms Bertha Henson’s letter, “Why charge Singaporeans for new ICs?” (Nov 13). Singapore citizens and permanent residents (PRs) have to register for the National Registration Identity Card (NRIC) at age 15, and re-register at ages 30 and 55. Re-registration ensures that NRICs are updated with recent photographs to aid identification of NRIC holders. It also enables citizens and PRs to provide their biometric identifiers to the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). The cost of replacing an NRIC is about S$60. Citizens pay S$10 and the balance of S$50 is subsidised. PRs pay a higher fee of S$50. These fees have been charged and unchanged since 2000. The change is that re-registration is now also required at age 55. This has been the case since Jan 1, 2017. Ms Henson wants the whole sum to be subsidised. That is possible, but in effect, it means the taxpayer in general would pay the full sum, as opposed to S$50. The applicant would pay nothing, as opposed to S$10. We believe that a system where the applicant pays a small sum is better: It brings a stronger sense of pride and ownership of the card. The S$10 sum is very manageable for most people.* Since Jan 1, 2017, when re-registration at age 55 was introduced, 112,900 people have obtained new cards. Those with financial difficulties and who are unable to pay the NRIC registration and re-registration fees can submit an appeal to ICA. ICA has waived the re-registration fee for about 40 applicants owing to their financial situation. Each appeal will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. That has been the practice until now.

dXter Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Why is the civil service nickle-and-diming something which they made necessarily compulsory? It has to be free.

YANG Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 Cost $60, sure or not ?? 2yrs ago when i was renewing my passport, i asked about replacement of CRACKED IC, I was told that i've TO PAY $50 for the replacement WITHOUT SUBSIDY!!! Now they say only $10... While the rest $50 subsidized. Sounds like very "pre-election carrot" to me.

Now they say only $10... While the rest $50 subsidized. Sounds like very "pre-election carrot" to me. This subsidy is only given when one is re-registering one's IC at age 30 and 55. It was in practice since 2000 as stated. Re-registering at 55 comes in effect only in 2017 which as it happens, i turn 55 in that year. Lol, have a friend that just replaced his cracked IC days before the announcement and he is sore as he had to pay $60
