It’s All About Choices

“Flag the Bus Early”…this is the silliest campaign I’ve ever heard. Surely the bus companies can come up with better campaigns…like “More Buses Less Overcrowding” or “More Buses To the More Remote”…”More Buses At Cheaper Rates”. Even Dr Lim Wee Kiat with his maiden speech in Parliament said that although we have 2 bus companies servicing the commuters but they are not competing…well said Dr Lim. With no competition…you get “Flag the Bus Early”.

Dr Lim also pointed out that not everyone preferred to shop in air-conditioned supermarkets and eat in air-conditioned food courts. I for one love to eat at hawker centers…although it’s almost the same food but serve at 2 different places…the vibe is very different…and it’s much cheaper that’s for sure. I’m sure there are plenty living in the new estates who agree with me. Don’t think we will be getting any within the next 2 or 3 years in the new estates…or not at all…well at least a decent coffee shop would do fine...could you believe that there isn’t any in the vicinity where I live…maybe we should flag the bus early and go to other older estates to eat at the hawker centers instead.
