My very good suggestions: to enhance better connectivity within Punggol, Sengkang and Woodlands, possible for 965 to terminate at Sengkang Int, but serve Punggol Central and Punggol East areas??
This route below suggested:

Unlike to happen.. due to 965 is loop service and will be too long .. but 967 will be good option to go Punggol
967 isn’t even meant to be a trunk service, it only is because of SMRT’s and/or LTA’s insistence that every feeder service must start at the main interchange
Which is honestly stupid even if interchange capacity is an issue
They kinda even broke their own rule with 268, 298, 299 and formerly 374
If that’s the case, then it’s more likely than not that SMRT is to blame behind 967’s horrid execution
Also since it’s a trunk service, they can get away with running super low intervals, leading to lower demand, and then the cycle continues
