2) Pg 10: Drink and eat MRT riders on the rise .
How do you feel about MRT commuters eating and drinking blatantly on the train ?

It is ok for me . As i think that eating in the MRT is common nowadays . But their are some advantage and disadvantage of eating in MRT . Business man , who need to rush to office quickly , can just have their meal in the train as it can save their precious time . But it can have disadvantage if he/she litter in MRT . If they did not litter , i think it is fine .
