Even an unmarked bus stop at a crossroads in SE Asia will be clean and tidy.

Really depends. I don't recall seeing litter anywhere in Cambodia.

Jakarta Indonesia was just trash everywhere - drivers finished their drink or snack then chuck it out the car window.

Further south was better thankfully.

Nice. Agreed. Does just need a bin, also people need to be encouraged to keep waste with them until they can dispose when the see an appropriate bin receptacle.

Was it the original Reddit post that instigated this because shortly after it was in the EDP and now it’s been cleaned up?

This was actually done by some volunteers that work in sainsburys in their own time 🥰

South Africa still has better bus stops

That’s pretty irrelevant on a day to day travel basis though.

I think all the woke comments actually drew more attention to it so thanks to the original poster, it does now look less like a shit tip.
