SMRT, Purple Parade Movement roll out special concept trains and buses showcasing inclusivity

The special concept trains and buses will feature 21 faces of the movement.

The Purple Parade Movement partnered with SMRT Corporation Ltd (SMRT) to support the inclusion of persons with disabilities (PwDs) in public transport by launching special concept trains and buses.

Members of The Purple Parade, such as Paralympian Yip Pin Xiu and artist Glenn Phua attended the project’s launch.

Displayed in three carriages of a train running on the Circle Line are 21 individual profiles of the movement members. These profiles will also be on the platform screen doors of Bras Basah MRT Station.

The profiles will be on display until 21 April.

Meanwhile, profiles on two concept buses (SMRT service 960) will run from 25 April to 5 June.

“Our partnership with The Purple Parade underscores SMRT’s continuous commitment to Do Right, Do Good and Do Well, and to serve Singapore, first and foremost.” Ngien Hoon Ping, Group Chief Executive Officer of SMRT, said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
