Today, we visited several different places in Taiwan. The one that captures me the most attention was actually traveling by public transport to our various location. i feel that the Stock museum was actually quite boring and the stuffs that they talk to us about are pretty irrelevant, they focused more on the history of stock market in Taiwan, rather than how stocks work and the impacts it gives to the society, so i find it pretty pointless.
The idea of giving us 1 day to travel to our location of interest through public transport was a really unique idea, it allowed us to better understand and experience Taiwan itself, rather than just sitting on a bus, which has practically no interaction with the locals. The railway, or rather the MRT, in Taiwan is rather similar to Singapore. Both are organized, many interchanges and easy assessibilty to different part of the city. The way the commuters board the MRT in the country is different, they normally form a L shape queue before they move in the carriage for a less busy station and something similiar to Singapore when it is in a busier station, which allows commenters to quickly get on and alight.
I would like to see why Taipei is able to have a much more train frequency as compared to Singapore which has lesser lines, but yet longer frequencies although Singapore is considered as a "better developed" country.
