  Can share share mah…n its about smart utilisation of limited space/resourses in tiny SGP. Post office is not just for posting…MRT stations hv shopping malls(big money$ here)…bomb shelters can be used for storeroom (lol not good e.g)…overhead bridge make bike shelters underneath... Anyway if can agree to this thinking then ways can be found to adjust/fine-tune the bus lane – bus shelter system without delaying buses too much (n sticking to certain things just for name-sake become meaningless ….afterall agree that buses/mrt is the way to move the masses n we are talking about 6.9m ppl…but don squeeze all other traffic to other lanes then add ERP lah…

He insisted on paying every single cent…said appreciate I took him, so many taxis siam or on call…some ppl work, scringe n save $ to take taxi cos they need.
