There were several "pushers" outside pushing them into the bus. The people on the bus got moved a bit further to the back and crammed closer together. This happened about three more times. I started about 1/4 of the way from the front of the bus and ended about 3/4 of the way back. Needless to say, we were a lot closer together even though I wouldn't have thought it possible when I first got on. It took over an hour to get to our terminal and this was a 1:00am.
People in Asia are just used to this. It's a very different life over there.

Sounds like it pays to plan ahead and make sure you are near the door so you can get out at your stop!
