Singapore’s reputation for cleanliness is world-renowned, and for a good reason. From banning chewing gum to imposing hefty fines for littering, this island nation takes its cleanliness very seriously.
For the ‘RUN SG’ commuters—those hardworking Malaysians who cross the border daily for better job opportunities—there’s a crucial message: Respect Singapore’s pristine standards

These images show plastic food and drink packaging strewn about, creating an unsightly mess.
“To all the brothers and sisters of Run SGD passing through this area, from Woodlands Checkpoint to the waterfront road, please do not litter here. I’m afraid one day, this area will be closed,” he posted in a Facebook group.
This rest spot is a vital refuge for many Malaysians, offering a break from the gruelling commute.

“If it gets closed, we won’t have a place to rest from the morning traffic congestion. This is just a gentle reminder for our mutual benefit. One bad apple can spoil the whole bunch,” he warned.
Netizens responded to the post with their frustrations about the littering habits of some Malaysian commuters, especially motorcyclists.

One commenter shared, “Those passing through Woodlands to the sea are the same. Some people hang out by the sea, eat, and throw trash on the roadside. Sometimes, before I leave, I pick up their trash. I’m afraid Singapore will close the area and ban hanging out there.”

Another chimed in,“Hmm, what a mentality. Why not put the trash in your bike basket first? Then find a trash can and throw it away.”
