Reminders for Everyone | Do not place your trash at the seat.




Signage has been put in one of the buses in Zhongli to remind its riders to not leave their garbage on the seat of the bus.

A photo of it has been posted on a Facebook group named Mga Pasyalan sa Taiwan by one of the Foreign workers named Rod Erick.


According to Rod the signage was spotted on bus Number 703.

The purpose of the signage is to remind the riders of the public transport to always put their garbage on the garbage bin and not leave it in the seat.

The signage was written into two languages one in Mandarin and the second one in Tagalog.


(請勿將垃圾放置座位上車處置有垃圾桶) although it is also written in tagalog it could not be easily understood because it was not properly translated.

When you translate it English it clearly says that "Do not place garbage in the seat and dispose of the trash can".

Some are in rage upon reading the Tagalog translation of the said signage.


One of the comments in the post said that it was "Super Discriminating" according to the comment Filipinos are not the only one who rides the bus there are other nationalities also. Furthermore the comment also suggest that they should also translate it to other languages, not just in Filipino.

But some people have explained in the comment section that the signage was for every one and not just for Filipino's but it includes the Taiwanese riders also.
