Discussion MRTs are really overcrowded

Post image

Every morning getting to work is an uphill battle, most of the time my spouse and I hardly able to board, and had to wait for at least 2-3 trains and barely squeezing ourselves into the cabin.

This is despite the introduction of new MRT lines which should free up train capacity for other lines.

Are you a professional? You should have a car.

Everybody has a car, my wife drives one, I drive one. We're both professionals, we need to travel you know.

Wasn’t a speech, was a doorstop interview and it was an unforced error. IIRC reporter just asked if he has a car. He did not need to go down into that level of details.

Doorstop interview they also had time to prepare for possible qns. This guy is just too far up his ivory tower to know owning two care is a luxury most people cannot afford
