Make It Right For A Better Ride

Have you ever thought why would people rather spend money on taxi than taking a train?
Why would people wake up extra early to take the train from Tampines that goes to Pasir Ris and re-bounce it and go to wherever they want to?
They just wanted to have a rest before work and also main thing!
TO GET INTO THE TRAIN.

People like us are not being considerate by not moving into the center of the train. If no one moves in, no one can board from the next station and what is worst is hard for people to move out of the train. Let's point out what should we do to improve this.

1. Moving into the middle of the cabin helps to allow people to board easily. It might be hard to get out but at least we are not blocking the way.

2. Do you realised how noisy our train is to compare to Japan? Click here to watch the video
Our train rides are like market. All the shouting and loud music playing away. They need to stop this and learn from Japan cultural. Everyone will have a peaceful ride to wherever.


3. Stand aside from the door is a MUST! But people are stand in a U-shape instead. Some people just go straight to the door without bothering anything. ( I can't never stand such people.)
You need to wait till the people get down before you board or else you are just blocking the way and wasting time!


4. Seat- Be it reserved or what. You can sit if there's no one around you needed the seat more than you. When a elderly enters the cabin, just give the seat. There's nothing wrong sitting on it when there is no one.

Taking a train is the same as taking a bus. I do not understand why people can move to the end of the bus not moving to the middle in the train. And do not act as if you are reading, texting or sleeping. There are many people who needed the seat more than you. Won't you feel proud when someone smile and say thank you to you in front so many people? I WILL. So let's start doing it together!

* LASTLY! It helps to avoid people to take a picture and put you on STOMP!
( don't ever give them a chance to!)
