SINGAPORE: Flowers, crescents and ketupats (rice dumplings). These are some of the festive motifs that some of Singapore's trains and buses will feature between Friday (Jun 8) to Jul 7, in celebration of the Hari Raya festive season.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a factsheet released on Friday that there will be two Hari Raya-themed trains – one on the North-South and East-West Lines and the other on the Downtown Line.
