Transportation...trains vs car...

Been on a 2 days training for Dangerous Goods onboard vessels...quite free...the training is relatively interesting..despite the fact that it is the 3rd time that I am learning all the same things...hahaha...

Anyway, just wana comment on some things regarding the public transport in our "home". Singapore boast of having a great public transportation system that allows us to travel from one end of Singapore to another in a relatively easy manner and helps us to "save" money from driving.

However, does anyone really think that way? Public transportation has been raising its fee almost every year and yet, their service has not exactly improved like they proclaimed...trains arrived in a longer time period now, and having some without seats (despite the fact that we are supposed to be older folk- friendly now... with the aging population...(maybe they think more ppl on wheelchair? so need bigger space?) Then trains are driven in a jerky manners by train master who do not care if there are eldery onboard. Plus, the trains stop in the middle of the tunnel whenever they faced problems from the earlier trains....and that caused more delays...admittedly that we have to consider the safety of everyone and of coz we shldnt complain for the sake of our safety, but couldnt SMRT do something abt the drivers who do not meet the schedule on time? It is really sickening to get out of your house earlier, only to meet a delay and become later than you normally arrived for work...somehow, it makes mi feel that braving the hordes of cars on the CTE is better than the hordes of ppl on the MRT and the delays met almost every week....

Well, buy a car you say...sure, I can buy a car and drive to and fro...paying ERP at every chance that I've got...ooooo....I LOVE to pay ERP dun ya? Fact is, life is Singapore has become so expensive that the only way that U can live here is to be rich...and to be rich, u have to be rich first? Soo, how? Suffer in silence... while you pay more taxes to benefits the "new citizens" of Singapore...What will become of us... I do not know...
