KMB Boy joins hands with My Melody to promote bus safety and etiquette

Everyone has the responsibility to follow public transportation etiquette. The Kowloon Motor Bus Co. (1933) Ltd. (“KMB”) announces that KMB Boy cooperates with Sanrio Hong Kong (“Sanrio”) and My Melody to promote six “bus safety and etiquette” messages, including wearing face masks, holding the handrails, and no eating or drinking on board. KMB will post safety and etiquette notices to remind passengers on its entire fleet. KMB will also decorate Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Bus Terminus to be KMB Boy and My Melody-themed bus terminus, arrange a themed bus to travel via Nathan Road, and launch a series of crossover products. Fans of KMB Boy and My Melody don’t miss the perfect chance.

Six bus safety and etiquette notices will greet the public on all KMB Routes

To raise awareness of passenger safety and travelling etiquette, KMB Boy and My Melody act as passengers and show the importance of six safety and etiquette messages. They are wearing face masks, no putting feet on the opposite seats, holding the handrails, no eating or drinking on board, putting away your personal belongings, and being careful when going up and down stairs.

My Melody always says “Thank you” when she receives assistance every time. KMB Assistant Commercial Director Emily Cheung hopes that the safety and etiquette messages, which will be posted on the entire bus fleet, can instil in the public through the vivid performance of KMB Boy and My Melody. KMB will continue to promote bus safety and etiquette to enhance passengers' riding experience.
