Hi, I've seen this bus captain on 133 and he's very umm... friendly? i mean, when i or passengers board the bus he will say, good morning, good afternoon, HELLO, how are you? etc. Not those soft voices, its like clear and sharp. it makes you smile you know?
When you get off, For example you are in school uniform, he will say... Bye, Study hard ARH!! especially at this time, its O levels. Or others. I mean, he's the friendliest guy i've ever met!
The service number is SBS8462Z (133)
If you have seen this captain, share your thoughts!
Not sure if he's the same guy I'm thinking about. There used to be a standby BC under BSRG (not sure if he's still standby and still under BSRG) that is very friendly and does the above things you mention. Taken his bus before on Sv52 and Sv410.
Sometimes when you're too friendly other pax is unhappy.Imagine the BC has to greet thousands of pax..Sometimes can be quite irritate if you get what i mean.A simple greet and smile are just enough IMHO.A few cases the BC greet like robot(Malaysian BCs especially) just to get commendation from pax.I do know a former BC @ SL who greet pax with the saying of Chinaman,Chinaman,Wahkaoz
If he's indian he's likely to be Chandra..
Very friendly chap, had loads of commendations since years ago - almost every issue of Busway has his name in the list.

Most of the Indian BC are friendly. They will smile at you when you are taking photos of the bus that they are driving.

I took his bus on 133 before, some euro V. It's an indian BC. Suppose it's the one you guys are referring to.
He's super polite, greeted me with "Good afternoon handsome boy", although im not that handsome la. It certainly made my day.And he even told an old man not to get off his seat till he stopped, or else he would fall.
(:

Its the guy :)
about 3 months ago i was taking svr 133 to my school this morning but since im getting off in awhile, he asked me to go back to the backdoor and wait.
I mean, he's just worried that i might fell as the bus is quite wobbly due to the number of pax sitting or various sides of the bus.
There's one on sv 17 driving 9629D very polite senior BC, greets everyone and his driving is very smooth yet fast.
