The Vogue Ride

The MRT in Singapore sure knows how to be in fashion!

Just when you thought this please-don't-let-anyone-bomb-our-mrt game is going nowhere and you no longer pay attention to the aunties and uncles starring in the video, they thought of something new to alert you.

Now I don't know about the red and the green line but if you're taking the purple line, you will hear numerous "please do not lean against the door".

Funny, I think they just picked a random officer out of their staffs, he speaks English with a local accent, very annoying-hearing.

He doesn't say "please do not lean against the door" in a pleasant tone, he says "pleeeesss do not leeeeeennnnnn againsssssss the dooooooor."

Ok, I am exaggerating, I'll admit it, but bottom line, he sounds very local and oh-I-am-so-buu-because-I-am-at-work.

This pre-recorded line will be played when a new station is reached, before they open the door. They all sound the same to me but Alberto says they recorded a few different versions,
some versions sound angrier.

I wonder how leaning against the train doors makes a difference, Alberto claimed safety aside, it might damage their door.

Ahh, that's not really our problem isn't it?

They tell you how dangerous it is to lean against the door but never an accident about it. Like how people tell you Durex is not safe but I never get knocked up after all these years of testing.

Yes, let's entertain ourselves while taking the ride, shall we?
