GIVING UP SEATS ON THE MRT TRAINS

We are a group of students from Tampines Junior College. Currently, we are doing a project that need us to do survey and forum discussion related to the gracious MRT act.

It would help if you guys could give your opinions about giving up your seats in an MRT, here are some guiding questions you could answer! :)

1. Would you give up your seats on the MRT trains when you see someone who needs it more than you?
2. Would you approach someone to give up their seats when u see that they are not giving up seats to people who need it more than you?
3. What are your opinions on people not giving up their seats? why would they not give up their seats?
4. What are some experiences you had with regards to giving up seats be it negative or positive ones?
5. What do you think of some measures or movement that have been implemented to encourage people to give up their seats like the reserved seats and the comics (graciousness movement)?
6. What are some ammendments or changes would you do to current measures to make it more effective?
7. Do you see people often giving up their seats?
8. Do you feel that the Singapore Kindness Movement campaigns have a significant impact on the public, how can it be improved?
9. If you are very tired after a hectic day, do you think that you need the seat more than the elderly?

Lastly, please help us to do this survey:
SURVEY ON BEHAVIOUR IN MRT TRAINSSURVEY ON BEHAVIOUR IN MRT TRAINS
It just will take a few minutes of your time, we appreciate every responses!
Thanks!

Is better to change the topic from
SURVEY ON BEHAVIOUR IN MRT vs SURVEY on BEHAVIOUR in SMRT maintenance policy to up keep MRT reliability.

I will purposely knock into people if they block the doorway when I am exiting. I don't suppose that counts on graciousness ON the MRT, since those people aren't technically on the MRT.

Yes, I do see more people giving up their seats.

Yes they have a significant impact, to the extent that I personally feel uncomfortable sitting down in the MRT because of the social repercussions that I may face if I happen to not give up my seat to someone who needs it.

No matter how tired I am, I still won't sit down unless the MRT cabin has very few people.

what about people who carries their big backpack behind them bumping into others?
they literally take up 2 standing spaces, right?
