Day 184 after the event

On the way home this evening when passing by the famous Sam Tet primary school, i spotted a few of school buses picking the passengers. This is absolutely normal scene for Malaysian. But what made me sad was that, the pick up is not done at a road side or special bus stop, but instead directly on the road with the 3 feet or shorter pupils lined up to board on the bus while the busy vehicles are passing by just not more than half a feet away?
How could these bus operators have such type of attitude of "tak apa" as long as making money out of the passengers without any sense of safety. If these were the secondary students who can already take better care of themselves, although still risky, then i may curse the bus operators less...but these are not more than 10 years old pupils...
I will try passing by again tomorrow and take some images... This really require some attention of the relevant enforcement party. After all, human life should not be compromised. School bus operators, pls be more safety minded.
