yellomen Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Holy crap... and in the Netherlands we think our public transport is a disaster with several minutes of delay... is is a complete disaster!
fishgodeep Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 We are very fortunate in the West... ..I've seen 4 people on a pushbike which was amazing in it's own right but I just cannot imagine 178 Million people trying travel at the same time.....that's like 3 time the population of UK!!
Raijor Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 I have a friend on his way there right now. He left Canada last night. What a rough way to start a holiday.

Years ago i was in Vietnam during their new year and traffic was quite busy but nothing compared to the things i've seen from China on the news. I hope there won't be more death on that chaos... imagine the bizar thing here... they wanna go home to see their family 1 week every year... and imagine the family hear about a loss in this time

Then this bad weather hits them, and we complain and [censored] about bad reps.? Yes , we are in the Western world, but I for one still consider the poor unfortunates. Remember , there is allways someone worse off than yourself.
capice Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Holy crap... and in the Netherlands we think our public transport is a disaster with several minutes of delay... is is a complete disaster! Imagine 400.000 people on Den Haag CS or anywhere, it would be chaos too...... I feel for those people, it's the only time to visit there relatives once a year
