Common courtesy are closely
related with common sense. It is not something that we can teach in a day but
it is possible to be practiced or instilled from young age. Personally, I think
common courtesy and common sense should be starting as a study or course in
learning institution because the fact that most people are lacking of it, is
terrifying. I’m gonna list out my version of common courtesy based on places.

Road
v In Malaysia, right lane is for faster car to overtake the slower car
who drives on the left lane. However, there are cars who stay on right lane
eventhough he/she drive as fast as snail and turtle. Please do stay on left
lane if you drive less than 140 km/h people ! You have no idea how many cursing
words had been left on the road because of you. Do you really wanna wait until
faster car kiss your car butt or giving you high beam then you change lane? If
you want people to pray nice things to you, stop doing this. I can’t stay on the left side of the road
coz I wanna make U-turn afterwards. Have you ever heard of signal?! Use
your signal to notify the car which has been tailgating you. We are not mind
readers!
v There’s traffic light ahead. Do you know that you don’t have to
leave one aeroplane size of gap from the car in front of you so that more car
manage to go pass the green light. Stop being a selfish turd who only think
about his/her own butt. Be considerate by move forward whenever the front car
moves A.S.A.P

Toilet
v Before you enter the bathroom stall (seated), you should have paper
towel/ tissues, advisably more than one sheet. The reason behind this are
because you need some to wipe the toilet seat before you sit and after you done
your business. Of course, you need plenty to clean up yourself. Where goes the
tissue afterwards you may asked? Not in the bowl toilet (unless it’s already
super wet and not in a huge roll or else it will course clogging) in the trash
can GENIUS. Don’t exit the stall just yet! Leave the toilet seat up. The reason
behind this is so that excess water on the toilet bowl surface will drip down
and the toilet bowl surface will dry faster.
v Toilet paper / paper towel / tissue goes in the trashcan after used.
( I know you knew it already )
v Some public toilets have water hose with quite high pressured water
coming out from it, so my suggestion please open the water tap slowly so that
he hose wont dancing around and make you and person who in the next stall wet (
coz there’s normally gaps on the lower sides of the stall.
v Please do flush the toilet and try very hard to make sure other
people will not see your outcome (if you know what I’m saying) double check if
you must.
v In hotel’s toilet where’s normally have a bathtub. Please do keep
the floor dry as much as you can. There are more than enough towel to be used
as a floor mat. Just so you know not all towel in the hotel room are meant to
be used for your face and body. Keep the floor dry except the shower area (
normally they have door/ curtain to shield the water from splashing out the wet
area)

Escalator
v If you are young, healthy and don’t have a stroller with you, please
use escalator.
v If you are not in hurry please stay on the left side (the principal
same as on the road)
·
Elevator
v Make space for people who wants to come in for god sake!
v Stop talking loudly, have you ever heard of whispering?
v Be patient don’t push anyone inside or out
v Say excuse me if you want to move and always say sorry if you blocked somebody's way even it's unintentionally
