[b]SBS Transit launches
campaign to stop assaults on bus captains
SINGAPORE: There have been 18 cases of assault on bus captains in
the first six months of this year, compared to 14 for the whole of
last year.
SBS Transit says its bus captains have been slapped, kicked, and in
one case, punched repeatedly after he declined to hold up a busload
of passengers for one man who wanted to finish his cigarette at the
bus stop.
To protect bus captains, a Stop Bus Captain Abuse campaign has been
launched.
Posters will be fitted on the interior panels of SBS Transit's
2,800 buses to encourage commuters to report such assault cases to
the police.
They will also be put up at bus interchanges and terminals. -

I suggest that someone should launch the Stop abusing commuters
and Stop anyhow consifcate EZ-link cards campaign and cause so much
inconvenience.
