SINGAPORE: After yet another passenger was seen with her foot propped up on a bus, many netizens took to social media to call out her actions. An online user took to Facebook on Monday (July 3) to share a photo of an elderly woman with her foot propped up on a bus chair. "This auntie put (her) leg on the chair when nobody (was) sitting (in the) next chair," the post read. "Inconsiderate if (the) next person (who wanted) to sit got her smelly feet and no hygiene." According to the online user, the photo was taken on bus number 99 at around 8.45 in the morning. The post, shared on the Facebook group COMPLAINT SINGAPORE, got the attention of other netizens, who took to the post's comments section to call out the passenger's behaviour.

He will also put his bag beside him even if the bus is crowded. Set an excellent good example of our pioneer generation."
