Mo Chit Station
I couldn’t help but notice last night that some order has been brought to the Mo Chit BTS/subway station interchange: anyone who has come down from the Mo Chit exit towards the subway entrance will be familiar with the chaos of buses, minibuses and taxis struggling to obtain passengers and then drive away, while all around clouds of passengers stand around in the heat while people try to sell them cut fruit and grilled squid. And it’s hot, did I mention that? Anyway, all has changed utterly and a terrible beauty of order has been created out of the chaos: now the minibuses are lined up along the pavement, in order, waiting their turn and, outside them but parallel, are the taxis also waiting nicely. All of this appears to be being controlled by one bloke with a whistle and a clip board. I can’t imagine that this will last for very long but it is heartening while it lasts. By the way, Mo comes from the abbreviation M.O. (medical officer) and means a doctor of some sort.
