Why ah? No chewing gum causing anxiety ah? Lor le le lor lor lor

People expect more since COE is so high! This is reasonable. Dont compare to other countries where owning a car has no COE. There is a choice for majority of people, but there is no much choice for Singaporean due to COE.

There is a saying that A developed country is not a place where the poor have cars. Its where the rich use public transportation. Having lived in S'pore, I feel its one of best, if not best in public transport. The rich part of the saying may not hold true but pub transport is 👌

I'm a born & raised Singaporean. My message to the Singaporeans who've expressed dissatisfaction w/ the public transport : Learn to be more grateful by looking at people in impoverished countries so that you don't take the easy life that you've enjoyed for granted & be humble.🤷

Really? If people are dissatisfied i think they dont really appreciate what great inffrastructure and pricing Singapore offers! Try Jakarta or Bangkok let al9ne many other cities and then see if they are still 'dissatisfied'
