WHY??

Well public transportation remains the most used way of getting around in KL, but it is not the most comfortable way! -Those who takes buses would agree- and it could be also formidable to some of us.

On the other hand, if your wanting to save money on patrol and car maintainance, well public transportation(buses and trains-not taxis)are the best ways. I myself do take bus twice everyweek, sometimes more. But what i do not understand is, most of the time i'm on the bus i tend to see at least 1 senior citizen, when i mean senior..he/she is really senior!! *60s or 70s* on occations, even folks in their 80s..don't get me wrong, its totally normal for people to take buses, but for these folks, some of them could barely walk without a "tongkat" had to walk up the stairs, and slowly maneuver themselves to a sit. what's worse is that sometimes, when the bus is full and along comes the old aged man, coming up from the front door, some of those sitting would just ignore it *idiots* not all but there are a number of them.

What could be more dangerous are some of the sicknening drivers, who could careless about anyone..often they would start driving and never wait for any passenger to be completely in the bus, and this happens even to older folks..*how utterly disappointing is that?!* These people shouldn't be driving buses and the company should do something about them. I'm not saying all but a number of them..plus they are RUDE!!!

One more thing that i don't understand, why is it that old folks at this age would take a bus, or a train? Don't they ahve kids, i'm sure if they do their kids are not in secondary school, rite? *DUH*..and where are they?? When their aged old parents/parent need a ride to some places..where is "repay", "respect" and "love" due for them? Once my friend was sitting in a bus on his way to college, and along came this old man, who sat next to him..and my friend being curious asked this old man (para-pharse) "Uncle, why are you taking bus and alone? where are your children?" the old man replied " oh, haiyo..they all working, very busy no time to take me around." I'm not saying we should neglect our other responsibility..anyways, ur old enuf to think what should be done..so guys never ever dump your parents by themselves...

Very good thought-provoking post James. Indeed it is so true. How selfish some ppl can be. And we Malaysian's are such 'courteous' ppl huh? Sigh... Makes me wonder what the next generation will be like. Yoikes! Bad thought!
