I
like to ride the MRT because it is hassle-free. It beats riding
the bus because buses can be stuck in traffic jams while MRT have
their own track. Buses can be unpredictable while MRT are on time,
everytime... well, almost. It also beats riding a motorbike because
I ride in air-conditioned comfort and I don't have to worry about
maintainece and changing engine oil and all that stuff. And it's
preety safe too. However, alot of people think otherwise. Traffic
jams are getting worse and worse and yesterday I saw the news saying
that road accidents are at all time high.
I have some creative suggestions on how
to attract more Singaporeans to ride the MRT :D
The SMRT must buy a
better looking, cooler model instead on the box, grey model we
have now. Design is everything.
Instead of just stopping at a destination, the MRT should detach
itself so that it can go further into the neighbourhoods.
Change
those uncomfortable plastic seats to those expensive massage chairs
thingies complete with MRT stewardess with a skimpy uniform.
Hire pole dancers to entertain commuters.
Instead
of just going from point A to point B, The SMRT can make the trip
more thrilling by making minor adjustments to its tracks.
For those really on
the go, MRT EXPRESS should be introduced.
The
SMRT should extend their train tracks to other countries.
To
improve productivity, SMRT should install blades at the door to
deter commuters from boarding and alighting at the last minute.
