Beijing Bus Group is now carrying out a three-year program to civilize its passengers. It will hold an election on "star passengers" and reward those who offer seats to those in need.

A representative from BBG says that there will be 7000 of its vehicles outfitted with video monitors that will show tutorials on how passengers can better interact with each other. He also says that passengers can evaluate the service of working staff on buses.

Meanwhile, BBG will provide prizes to those passengers who offer seats to children, elderly, handicapped or pregnant women. The detailed plan is still unfixed, but it may come out next year.

BBG aims to offer more civilized services to passengers and prepare for the influx of visitors for the 2008 Olympic Games.
