Yeah, loads of people outside this country would say, 'MRT good ah, convenient ah, cheaper mode of transport ma'.. Yes, it is seems like a good mode of transport, lots of carriage, spaces etc... but they will never know how it feels like when you are one of the commuters.
Throughout my 1 year stay in Singapore, at first i thought it's ok.. then gradually I'm sick of taking it. If the journey is long then I got no choice la.. but it's the other commuters. In the morning when you are in a mood (bad mood) cos of the morning rush, you wish to have a quiet moment of your own. Then you can hear music.. not those soothing music, it's those music that comes from other ppl's MP3 player. Health experts already advise not to listen to sounds/music at a high volumn, or else your ear drum is bigger than the drum and becomes deafer in no time. Yes, the youngsters are like that... they must be rich, can change their earphones anytime if they are spoilt. Some even like to blast music from their phone, like telling ppl that they are the DJ of that carriage. I dunno what is the culture like being like this, people would enjoy it meh? If the blaster enjoy it I would say they are damn selfish folks lor...
Another few things which I really beh tahan, is the grab poles. More and more people are taking the train, so grab poles are a must and must be enough for everybody. But there are SOMEBODIES who doesnt think so. When they are at the poles, instead they lean against it. I saw it 1 time there's this big fat ass lady leaned against the pole, where the butt cheeks protuded at the side (imagine a stick being stuck in the middle of it). So this kind of act nobody will wanna grab it, cos no1. your ass dun hv anti-fungal solution sprayed on it, so who knows what comes out of your butt and stuck at the pole (YUCK) no.2 your body so stuck to the pole, wanna do the pole-dancing is it... no ones stopping you.
Some commuters has this mentality, they always think seats are like GOLD. When a semi-empty train stops at the platform, doors open and you can see several swarms of aunty and uncle rush to the empty seats like found gold... Wahlao, the seats are plastic lor, not made of gold lor.. summore push here push there just to get the seats, very 'cheap' act ok... Some commuters also have this funny mentality: I paid for the ride, means I also paid for a seat. So I MUST have a seat. Gee, I dunno who developed this mentality, but I'm sure it's those kiasu kiasi greedy people. If like that why not take taxi leh? Taxi is really you pay you SIT ah.. comfortable also, like got chauffeur servicing you.
A lot of people think Singapore is an orderly country. Ya meh, you havent seen the rest of the world only... Ok, on the platform they got yellow lines ma, the PA system always like to announce 'Attention please, for your safety please stand behind the yellow line. Please stand behind the yellow line. Thank you' or 'Attention please, please make way for alighting passengers before boarding'... Smart people hear liao also know what to do.. Right, the situation which I always see is.. yes, people are standing behind the yellow line, but when the train approaches and stops, haha those kiasu kiasi people began to stand in the middle lar.. or push their way nearer to the door. (Back to the find gold concept.) Other worse case is while waiting for train some even stand in the middle of the yellow tunnel. See below:
:Sigh.... what a misconception of an orderly country. Would rather they have more personnel than to encourage those people from doing this. Men'siasui' sendiri aje jek...
