Update: This blog is no longer actively updated since 2023, but as of 2025 I still pop by to check on things and you can still reach me on Telegram or Instagram. Feel free to have a look around and happy reading!

Hey there! I’m Ryan Ch’ng — bus enthusiast, writer, photographer, aspiring data analyst and former student leader. I’m from Singapore; I studied in NUS from 2018 to 2022, where during the term I lived in Cinnamon College, home of the University Scholars Programme. After graduation, I remained involved with the buses but in a different capacity.

In AY2018/2019, my job as a Deputy Welfare Secretary in the NUS Students’ Union 40th EXCO required me to be the voice of the students for Internal Shuttle Bus (ISB) issues. I was and still am working a lot on that in many other capacities, but this blog was set up and run in my personal capacity.

I like writing to inform. Before embarking on this blog, my previous writing experience was at The Victorian Press, where I served from 2016 to 2017 as Chief Editor, and at USP’s newsletter The Cinnamon Roll.

What did I write about here? As the name suggests, NUS internal shuttle buses, with a particular focus on explaining why things are, should or should not be the way they are. Occasionally, I covered other aspects of bus transport, or transport in NUS.

All photos used on this site are my own unless otherwise specified, credited and linked. For more about me and what I envision this blog to be, read my post where I introduced myself and the blog in full.

You can hit me up any time on Telegram at @theISBman for a chat on buses, or other things. I personally always welcome comments or questions on NUS buses in my personal capacity, but if seeking official attention or looking for information for official purposes, please reach out to NUS Campus Services.
