Habitual problems

Yesterday I took MRT ( Train )home. I saw " reminders" inside the train as follow:
" It's not cool to bully. It's not cool to litter."
" Got fined. Gt CWO ( Corrective work order to clean up some designated places ) too. Now I'm a litterbug fool." " Do the right thing. Let's bin it."
Wow, you see! this is the good reminders from the enforcement body National Environment Agency.
My friends, with so many reminders, why enforcement officers still can manage to catch so many people littering?
I think this is the habitual problem.
If we all have right mindset, we should not litter. So, we wouldn't be fined ( few hundred dollars).
Remember few hundred dollars can be very big amount for poor families here.
So, we should do all the good things in life.
Do you agree?

Let's bin it


Many years ago, I went to subordinate court just to know about the procedure of court hearing. I could see so many lawyers, police officers, offenders, etc. I passed by court no.13, I could see many people queuing up, I asked a man why so many were here. He told me they were to answer the offence--littering.
In this city, if we caught littering by enforcement officers, we will be fined $200. If we do the same offence again, we will be fined more or need to clean up the designated area.
$200 is not a small amount for low income family, so please do not spend the hard earned money just to pay for that fine, you will feel " great pain "
Why people still want to litter here and there? I believe this is a bad habit from young.
This is the time that we need to respect " rubbish " also, if we do not respect it, then we are likely to pay $200 or more.
I hope all of you treat " rubbishes " as money, let's put them into the bank[ bin ].
Let's bin it, do not let enforcement officers have the chance to catch us. Am I right?
