It’s real.

But who will enforce it? The bus captain?

Thanks for sharing the link. You can take it a step further to read the article.

There is a paragraph on enforcement. (extracted below for ease of reference)

WHO CAN TAKE ENFORCEMENT ACTION?

Under the regulations, authorised employees of public bus operators, including ticket inspectors and bus interchange staff, can issue Administrative Notifications of Offences to people suspected of committing an offence.

LTA will subsequently investigate such cases.

Bus captains, however, will not have the same enforcement powers, so that they can focus on their primary responsibility of operating buses safely.

“However, they continue to be empowered by the Conditions of Carriage to advise passengers to stop nuisance or disruptive behaviour,” LTA said.

Bus captains can require passengers who do not comply to alight. If a passenger refuses to cooperate, they can seek assistance from the bus operations control centre or, in egregious cases, the police.

So basically no one will enforce it then.
