put 2 things you don't like together, and you get...
I don't like the sound from tvmobile on the bus, and I don't like people blasting music from their handphone. But when this 2 things happen together, I actually had some thoughts.
The tvmobile was broadcasting a Chinese show, and a group of passengers was playing Indian music from the handphone. Had the show been one in English, would those passengers still play the music from their handphone? I kind of think the probability is lower than before.
Somehow I feel that they shouldn't air programmes of any particular mother tongues, ie they should only broadcast English programmes; or to be fair, they should rotate programmes from all 4 official languages.
What is your view on this?

maybe it's because the majority of the population is of the chinese race? but i do agree that it would be fair to include shows of other languages too.
i had the same thought when i was watching superband previously, which was all in chinese.
