The MTR

Our subway stop is Tsim Sha Tsui. From listening to the subway announcements Sam and I are 90% sure that it's pronounced like Chim Sha Choy. Anyone out there know Cantonese and can confirm this?

A few facts about the MTR (Mass Transit System):
1. It's super clean
2. It's super organized
3. It's super clean
4. Exits are clearly marked and it makes figuring out your way around a lot easier (i.e it's super organized)
5. It's super clean
6. It's easy to use (i.e it's super organized)
7. All subway stations and trains are air-conditioned (i.e it's super clean)

Reasons why it's super clean:
1. No food or drink is allowed inside the paid areas
2. They post signs everywhere to cover your mouth if you cough or sneeze (sick people wear masks)
3. It's air conditioned (Paris Metro could benefit from this especially because they don't all wear deodorant over there)
4. There are signs posted on the moving sidewalks stating that the handrails are regularly cleaned and sanitized.
