I think this depends on certain circumstances because public transport is different in each country or region. I would give an example for my country, Kazakhstan, where I live. And the public’s transport is okay, I mean, it’s average. However, I would improve the way people act or behave. Because compared to other countries like Japan, people are very polite. They won’t talk over the phone loudly inside of public transport or argue or something like that. But here in Kazakhstan, it is actually a common thing. When people are arguing, people are talking loudly, it is interrupting others. And I think this is inappropriate behavior, so this should be changed. However, for other countries, it might be the infrastructure. To having a fast transport, maybe some complex… No, I mean, lots of ways or directions, so it would be easier to choose and just go wherever you want.
