The Difference Etiquette of Public Transportation in Indonesia and Japan

Sometimes someone in one place can be pretended impolite by people from another place. This is caused by the rules of etiquette in every places are different. For example, the rules of public transportation are different in each country. We can compare our countries etiquette with Japan. In Japan, someone should not talk on his cell phone for riding public transportation, because there are “no cell phone” signs everywhere. It just means that a cell phone may not used to talk, but it can be used to the others such as sending a message, playing a game or checking his mail. This is contradiction with Indonesia. In our country, someone may talk by cell phone when we want, as long as it does not disturb others such as talking slowly.

Now, let us see the other rule of public transportation in Japan. If it is a usual thing to eat on the train in our country, even there are some people sell foods. But it is banned in Japan. When someone rides on the train, he should not eat some food. That is the write rules in the country and we can see the signs everywhere. Finally, it is a wise thing to know the etiquette in each place to avoid misunderstanding.

Foto Narsis

Di BIP ada tempat foto yang bagus dan harganya murah, selembarnya cuma Rp. 3.000, udah termasuk foto 4R lho. Karena harganya yang murah, awalnya kami mengira kalau ini semacam fotobox yang kita sendiri yang mencet, tapi ternyata ini ada fotographernya dan gak kalah ama studio2 foto yang besar. Latarnya juga bisa kita pilih sesuai selera.
Nemu tempatnya juga gak sengaja, pas kita lagi mau sholat Dzuhur di lantai 4, trus kita ngeliat banyak ABG di tempat foto, kita2 pada mampir deh. Akhirnya kita mulai pasang gaya.
