On June 19, 2024, at 12:05 a.m., reporter Cai Weixin in Taipei reported on a recent video where an elderly person demanded a seat from a young man on the MRT, reigniting the debate on priority seats. TV host Yang Yueh-eh, aged 58, emphasized the importance of mutual respect in her recent post where she highlighted 'being disrespectful, lacking manners, relying on age, and practicing high emotional intelligence.' She believes that prioritizing courtesy on public transportation should extend to various groups, not just the elderly, and encouraged understanding and empathy between passengers. Yang also referenced a recent incident where a 29-year-old passenger faced backlash for not giving up a priority seat, despite suffering from an illness. She stressed the need for all passengers to be considerate and cultivate emotional intelligence on public transport.
