If you are a frequent at Delirium, you would have noticed that the site has been quiet for about a week.I was away at Singapore for a workshop and hardly had time to blog or even go online proper. Anyway..Im not a fan of the country simply because of the lifestyle and the food is poor as compared to home but hey..a Singaporean would say the same about that(nothing tops home) .

While i was there the one thing i enjoy about the country is how organized and well planned everything is.The list goes on and on and on but im going to choose the transportation system because i had to use the public transport to shuttle myself around. I toke a lot of cabs to move around and i must say its awesome. Stop a cab and get in, tell the dude where your heading and he takes you there with a meter to give you cost.The cabs are clean and some cabbies are not the friendliest but at least they keep their mouths shut and take you where you need to go as fast as they can.
Why are they so dicipled? Have a look at the signages all over the country above.
Fear Factor always works.If something is hard to fix, enforce it hard and eventually everyone will abide.Especially if its something fundamental..ie transportation system.
This is a small part of it. The trains,busses and cabs actually compliment each other very well. They are all connected and that is simply a sign that its a well planned .Awesome work!
Excuses like they are a small country and all are not good enough anymore, are smaller states as good as that small country?
