Tune out TV Mobile, please
CAN we request for peace to be returned to SBS Transit buses?

Since TV Mobile audio is readily available on FM89.3, commuters can tune in to the radio for personal listening. Mobile phones and PDAs have also increased accessibility to radio channels without the need to carry a portable radio.

Some commuters would prefer a quiet read or time to themselves on bus trips. The last thing one looks forward to after a hard day's work is to be bombarded by the yelling and screaming of MediaCorp's artistes. This is made worse when the bus captain ups the volume and no earphone can insulate the commuter from the noise.

May I also know if revenues from TV Mobile advertising have gone into subsidising bus fares for commuters?
