Flyers could be seen everywhere. You might see some people giving out flyers in town area, Mrt station and many other places. Flyers could also be seen at most bus stops or some notice board. Flyer are mostly seen to advertise a product or a company, this is because flyers could be print in large quantity at a very cheap price and also very easy to design. Hence, lots of companies choose flyers to be their choice of advertising their product/company. Flyers are easily distributed as it could be distributed at anywhere in Singapore, where there are crowds.
Despite there are lots of good points in using flyers as an advertisings tools, there are lots of people saying that flyers are the current “Bubblegum / Chewing gum “in Singapore. You can see flyers anywhere on the ground and pasted at every corner of the bus stop or even some lamp post.
It is kind of a hazard to the environment.
But my own opinion is that it should not be banned, but a fix quantity of flyers each company could give out should be set. And fine should be given to those companies that paste their flyers at prohibited places like lamp post. When fine get stricter, companies will then be more responsible in giving out their flyers. Hence Flyers are different from chewing gum, as it has its use in advertising and it should not be banned.
