SINGAPORE: Some MRT trains and buses have been dressed up in Hari Raya decorations as the festive celebration approaches.
The festive look was launched on Friday (May 24) by the Land Transport Authority (LTA).
“The decor this year includes decorative floral batik patterns and blossoming flowers, symbolising the renewal of friendship and kinship,” said LTA.
“Commuters may also enjoy other visual elements such as butterfly motifs, which represent endurance, change, hope and life,” it added.
