No, they’re not turning them into hybrids or any thing environmentally friendly. It’s not that kind of “green”. Public buses and taxis in Aqaba are all being painted green to symbolize the “uniqueness” of the city. Now even though it’s my favorite color, when I think of Aqaba I don’t really think of green. Red, maybe blue or my absolute favorite: neon fuschia. But not green. In any case, I thought this was a bit ironic:
Aqaba cabby Nasser Mousa, who ferries passengers to other cities such as Maan and Karak, said: “Last week, traffic police stopped me on the way to Maan and issued me a ticket for changing the car’s colour.â€
I find this all a bit too metaphorical for Jordan: whitewashing the larger problems.

Looks .. hmmm
ya3ni leah Green !!
Maybe it is the obsession with green 😉
lol, at the ticket he got.
the color sucks:S i don’t like.
My first thought from the title was that it was SOFEX trickle-down or something, camo-green to make tourists feel safe and protected. 🙂
thats not how it should be … they didn’t stick with Aqaba brand …
the branded one is much more nicer …
so, while we are at Aqaba..
Whats unique about it?
This will revolutionize the tourism industry no doubt, but I thought your idea about hybrid vehicles wasn’t too bad…
The color is Fugly.
Well, they are by the sea so why not go with blue mathalan? Or the color of the sand, lol.
Man I don’t know why I find this funny.
And yeah , while we are at Aqaba .. What’s unique about it?
well since summer is around the corner these r starting to look like saraseer il seif! e -wait for it- wwww!
