1a) What was the reason for building the platform doors at the MRT stations?
The reasons for building the platform doors at the MRT stations is because to prevent commuters from from falling onto the tracks intentionally or otherwise. This is because there is an average of 16 cases a year in 2004 and 2005 to 31 in 2007.
b) Which other countries already have such doors installed at train stations?
Taipei and Paris
2) What is your opinion of commuters on trains who disregard the rules (no eating/drinking, give up seats for the elderly/ the disabled/ pregnant women etc.) on the train?
I think if commuters who disregard the rules on the train is they are obviously irresponsible. They didn't think about others, who needs the seats, the disabled or the elderly.
