<<回台湾走走2011>> - Inside Kaohsiung Metro

Learning from the Kaohsiung Experience

This 1-minute amateur video was taken onboard the Kaohsiung Metro (aka MRT) during our final evening in the city.

Train announcements were proudly made in 4 different languages (Mandarin, Hokkien, Hakka & English respectively) even though Taiwan is a predominantly Mandarin speaking society.

I guess this truly demonstrates a world class public transportation system that is affordable & accessible to all segments of the society regardless of race & literacy levels. More importantly, a 人性化 public transport system that truly cares for the end-users.

This is one of the many aspects that our profit-driven transport operators could reflect and learn from the Taiwanese experience.
