Are you a sweet tooth? cannot liao hor !

Fined $30 for eating sweet

THE crime? Eating a sweet on board an MRT train.

The punishment? A $30 fine.

The offender 48-year-old housewife, Mdm Bibi Zaina Binti Mohamed attempts to justify her actions.

She said, 'I know it is not OK but I take it sometimes because I am giddy.'

Enforcement officer Roger Foo did not buy her explanation. 'If everyone were to say they have to take sweets because they are thirsty or giddy, where are we going to draw a line?' he rebukes.

SMRT on Thursday started cracking down on commuters eating or drinking on trains.

500 enforcement officers have started patrolling trains for errant commuters and if you are caught consuming, first time offenders could be fined $30.

Such action comes a year after trying a different approach.

Before this crackdown, SMRT used to counsel chomping commuters instead.

However, when the number offences rose from 276 cases in 2006 to 595 in 2008, SMRT moved to change tactics.

Whether the enforcement works remains to be seen, but you can find out what happens to people caught for eating or drinking on board a MRT train or at a MRT station on RazorTV.

**** **** They got hear of this term : Hypoglycemia before bo? Look at the Important Reminders !

• Always carry some sweets in your pocket or bag, in case you need to treat sudden hypoglycemia.

Singapore, a FINE country..

Outright fines for commuters caught eating & drinking in MRT trains, stations By Jessica Yeo, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 15 July 2009 2005 hrs SINGAPORE : It will be outright fines from now on for those caught eating and drinking in MRT trains and stations, as train operator SMRT said it will no longer issue warnings to offenders. Over 500 station staff will issue Notification of Offence slips to commuters caught in the act. This is unlike the past practice where commuters were first warned and only fined if they persisted in eating or drinking. Chia Chun Wah, deputy director of Stations Operations at SMRT Trains, said: "We are trying to eradicate this (habit of) eating and drinking both in the stations and the trains. We have been doing a lot of advisories to the passengers. "Obviously, there's a certain limit where we can educate the passengers. Now we're going to this enforcement scheme and trying to educate passengers further and to refrain from eating and drinking in the systems." Fines range from S$30 to S$500, depending on the number of times the commuter has flouted the rule. He will have to pay the fine to the Land Transport Authority directly. Over 590 notifications were issued in 2008, more than double the 276 issued the previous year. - CNA /ls Then can drink water from my favorite water bottle la hor ?... water i take from here.
