They provide everyone w/ trays alrdy, eat it, everything as in trash leave it in the tray.

It has become a big hoo-ha now since the day the PM suggested Singaporeans to clear their own trays. Too trivial a thing to make it such a big hoo-ha, only small mind people dwell on clearing trays when they hold a high position. -

I tell u why.Yes it's something small, but dun forget as we've become affluent and so on, we demand 'service'. So lots of good things learnt in school suddenly all became of no use overnight.
I still miss the days of 1960s - early 1990s.

Becoming affluent is fast or now becoming a thing of the past. Many having difficulty to look for jobs.
Such thing need not be told (clearing trays). We are not school children, neither is the PM our teacher or principal.

The thing is, compared to 1970s or 1980s, our lives are still better off.No doubt times is a little tight now w/ the global recession, but if there's a will to resolve things, there's a way out.

Actually loads of you havent seen some social undesirables.
They are not the poor, not the middle class, but the upper class.
I worked in a supermarket as a part time last year... and I experienced this...
There are many rich housewives in Singapore who live in a bungalow, drive a car.. and the only thing they have is TIME.
I have seen a rich tai-tai screaming and yelling at the top of her voice for 1 hour just to get a free wok. A total disgrace. =X
And I have seen another rich tai-tai, who bought a chicken, threw it in her car, came back 4 hours later and complain her chicken is spoilt and not hot, and screams and shout and say why the chicken is not fresh.
And a pregnant woman who screamed at the top of her voice to the cashier for double scanning her items... while everyone in the supermarket looks at her. -

I agree with your first statement.But last time police wore shorts, now police wearing trousers.

Richer, but busier, more stressful and more frustrated.

Actually not really...
1987 - 1996 were the best years....
From 1997 to 2010,
1997 recession, 2001 recession, 2003 SARS epidemic, 2004 Finanical Crisis?, 2009 Economic Crisis.
In fact, though we keep saying economy is getting better, but look amongst us, many still cant find a job outside, while the university students are worried about getting a job after graduation. -

I feel that people in Taipei are generally friendlier and more gracious than people in Tokyo.
Surpisingly as it is, but Tokyo is getting too globalised these days. In fact, I see Japanese snatching priority seats up over in Tokyo, while in Taipei, noone sits at the priority seat, in fact, it is like some social embarrassment.. -

The best years was actually the 1970s n 1980s. Even there was a recession, our lifes improves lots. -

Then why isn't anyone doing that? And that isn't the first time that someone has brought up the issue of not cleaning up after oneself.

Let the minister who suggested to clear tray get the food courts and fast food restaurants to impose fine on those who don't clear trays.So petty!

YOu show good example. From now on, you can show your grace, graciousness by helping the oldies to help them clear trays in food courts and fastfood places.
