<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->I AM here on a visit from Canada and have been enjoying the use of Singapore's clean public swimming pool facilities.
There is something, however, that could be improved: lane swimming etiquette. I noticed that, well, there simply is none. It is a complete free-for-all with swimmers meandering all over the lanes and swimming in every direction, making it a frustrating experience to swim laps for fitness.
A simple swim lane system in place in many countries should be easy to implement here. Everyone swims in a straight line in his own lane without the risk of being kicked in the head or elsewhere.
Those who are not swimming should stay in the corners of the pool where they will not be in other swimmers' way. Andrea Ong Pietkiewicz (Ms)

When our leeders embark on the indiscriminate FT policy, which etiquette should we be following!? China, India, Philippines, Myanmar... or ours, if any to begin with.

The chaos are everywhere.

Just the other day at east coast park, an angmo who is rollerskating at full speed are barking down orders at the top of his voice...


KEEP TO YOUR RIGHT, KEEP TO YOUR RIGHT.

We already have enough annoucement travelling on the Mass Rapid Trains..." no eating & drinking....if you see any suspicious....mind the gasp..gaps!...please do run down...." worse than going out with my grandma when I was young..

Now, at the swimming pool...'swimmers please use the lane markers', 'swim in straight line", "non-swimmers, stay at the side of the pool or out of pool"....
