There are just too many people in Singapore. Singapoeans only takes up 1/3 of the population. What does the rest made of? Well, you know the answer.. I just hope the govt stop taking in more 'people'..

I have put up with this problem of poor bus service for so long. People in the company who study the system in order to improve it really are not doing the job. May be all the senior LTA officers and Transport ministry officers should leave their cars at home and use the public transport for a month! We will also get cleaner air!

These are some of the repeat of what commuters has been asking for the past years. And this will continue to been left on the deaf ear. Because the bus company is on the other channel, the shareholders side. Recently they import a new bus that make sure to let you stand all the way to your destination because there is limited numbers of seat. It suppose to be able to carry wheelchair users but how many wheelchair users are there? The whole idea is to cramp more people onto a single bus so that they can reduce the number of bus but yet carry the same number of people daily. This is a step back in term of comfort in bus ride. And those crazy bus diver that drive like F1 driver. Braking so hard to ensure that you throw out your last night dinner! I always tell myself that if possible try not to take the bus. Go places where MRT can reach. Take a cab if no choice. Leave the bus to the very last choice.
