Today I went to the town to get some reload cards and decide to take a bus back, I took out my camera [not smart phone lo] and caught this picture, the bus that I use to go to the town in the 1960 is still alive. I went up, bus almost occupied and sat at the back and took few pictures The seat cover has some design, cover was tore. The floor was dirty with empty plastics and food left over. No bins and no air cond too. I am sweating. Lucky the window is opened. The old fashion type with 2 pieces of glass. I wonder why, in this very developing country. Everything has change. This kind of bus still exist. But in the city we can't see this 60 old bus, all are very clean with air cond. But in certain town still allow this scenario, the authority never think of the safety of the public. The transport department and the authority may be blind lo. Hoping you all don't have this kind of Public bus

I think the old dirty bus still serves its purpose. Perhaps there are no accident involving the buses, and the passengers are used to it. Though you are hot and uncomfortable, there is little safety risk if they do the maintenance regularly.

well, the govt tries to outphase them, the drivers go mad, most specially teh jeepneys. well, if it's properly maintained, why phase them out? if not then that's somethjing you could complain to the authorities.

Yes we do understand the govt pressure, every company need to earn. But the issue is that every year every public heavy vehicles on the road must go through several test then they return to the road. How come a bus like that can get pass their test then.....we are not 3 year baby...
