Dull Me.

i haven't been blogging much lately.
i suppose it's because my life has been pretty dull lately.
there's nothing much to blog about.
things are just...boring.
boring.

ohyea.

i suddenly remembered.
about a month ago, i blogged about KTM's implementation of "Ladies Coach".
as i mentioned in my previous post, i said that it was ineffective.
well, i have to take back my words now.
last monday, i took the KTM again.
and this time, i saw a vast difference.
this time, signboards are clearer, where the middle compartment is reserved for ladies only.
and they stationed one to two KTM staff, males to stand guard.
to ensure that no males actually went into that compartment.
what strikes me to be amusing is that, despite warnings...some men, were just so oblivious.
it happened when i was on my way back from Bank Negara, when the KTM stopped at Putra station. 2 male foreign workers actually board the Ladies Coach. i suppose they dont understand malay, english nor tamil. the staff has to point to the signboard and gesturing towards the other passengers, which are all ladies. and...they, still seem....well. BLUR.
the train already started moving, yet they are still inside and the KTM staff seemed lost of words.
finally, after a few minutes...only they are willing to head towards the other compartment.

i am glad that they started to take stricter measure to ensure the effectiveness of this Ladies Coach implementation.

but, the problem arose when it's during peak hour.

when i took the train, was during odd hours, so naturally, the train aint that packed.

my friend who board the train about 5sth in the afternoon, told me that... all the ladies will now want to squeeze into the ladies compartment. i mean, it's understandable. i wouldnt want to be in a compartment, where everyone is packed like sardine and being the one or 2 only girls. right?

so..what now ?

sigh. i can't believe i'm actually updating on KTM's Ladies Coach effectiveness.
this shows how dull i am lately.
