Priority banking..
Priority mailing..
Priority privelleges..
Priority club...
And now priority sitting in MRT trains???
Can you believe that?
I feel that's such a sign that Singaporeans are getting more apathetic about the people around them. It's pretty sick to see able bodied people snatching away seats from the old and the people that need it.
Yes, able bodied young people can be tired too and need seats to rest, but certainly not everyone in the train, right?
I wonder if such signs will actualy 'encourage' people to give up their seats to the needy, if all doesn't work.. maybe the "Singapore is a fine country" campaign might work!

Everyday I see old people on the trains. What will happen if I give up seats to them everyday?
I'll be deprived of a seat EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. What will I get in return?
Nothing much, altruism doesn't do much for me. I don't see other people giving up seats for the old people, so that leaves ME standing most of the time (because I give up my PRIORITY seat).
Rather than doing that sort of thing, I should just remain sitting down. I can't help everyone everyday anyway.
Get my logic?
