I find this poster very annoying and patronizing. How do you find it? I never liked the Phua Chu Kang character or the show, but I think Gurmit Singh is probably a really nice guy in person because he seems really hardworking and everyone in the Singapore showbiz scene seems to like him.
I found hilarious and patronizing.
It wouldn’t be patronizing if people would follow the suggestions given. When I was pregnant it was rare anyone gave up their seat to me. I constantly see old, feeble, cripple, parents with small children, STANDING while young able bodied people sit – staring those they should be giving their seat to. The characters on the poster are irrelevant – the Message is the point!
I’ve been fairly lucky on the MRT. I usually get offered a seat when I have E with me (although sometimes I stare the person into giving up their seat for me).
