Cantonese for Transportation

DDHK. ORG – Cantonese for transportation is important to know. Transportation cannot be separated from everyday life. Without means of transportation, it will be difficult for someone to go anywhere.

Transportation is divided into three, namely land, sea and air transportation. Air transportation is transportation that requires a lot of money to use it. Apart from having more sophisticated technology, air transportation is the fastest means of transportation compared to other means of transportation and has a relatively lower accident rate than land and water transportation.
