The Singapore Mass Rapid Transport network is known for its efficiency and reliability but over recent years, they seem to suffer from breakdowns and overcrowding especially during peak hours. The cause of this is believed to be the increased population and infrastructure in Singapore be it trains, buses, roads, hospitals, housing for these have not kept up. Which makes it pretty stressful and frustrating taking the SMRT to work. And this is not unique to just Singapore, but many other big cities as well.
I am quite entertained reading the daily live Facebook reports of a certain person who expresses her experience of going to work. Like most Singaporeans who depend on the SMRT for their commute, each trip by itself seems like an adventure - hhow many trains before she can board, the people whom she encounters each day which can fit neatly into the categories of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Or will it be a jackpot day where a break down occurs?
The blog title SMRT - Squeeze Me Really Right, sums up her daily encounters and I hope you enjoy 3 mins of live entertainment. Who says living in Singapore is mundane?
