SLC27-W3 | A One-Day Street Journalist: Business at The Transport Station.
Hello Steemians!
We have now entered the third week of the A Street Journalist for a Day series. This week’s theme is “Business at Transport Stations”. Every day, thousands of people travel through bus, train, private car or autorickshaw stations. Numerous small businesses have sprung up around these stations. Some are selling street food or selling tea, some are running fruit stalls or small restaurants, some are ticket agencies or repairing vehicles. These shops are not just business hubs but are an integral part of the commuting life of the common man. This week, your job will be to tell the stories of these small businesses from the perspective of a journalist. You will observe the places at those stations and talk to the shopkeepers and find out how their daily lives are going.

What You Must Share & Contest Objectives and Your Role |

In this competition, I will ask you to find any one business in the transport station of your city. If possible, grab a microphone and conduct a business interview with the shopkeeper like a journalist. You have to choose any one shop and share the story of that shop. However, you cannot review multiple shops. If you want, you can go to the bus station, go to the train station, go to the private car station and tell the story of the running business in the autorickshaw station. However, you have to go to that station and take the picture shown below as proof. You can write it on a piece of paper.

ধন্যবাদ প্রিয় বড় ভাই! নতুন আরো একটি চমৎকার বিষয়ে প্রতিযোগিতার আয়োজন করার জন্য।
প্রিয় ভাইয়ের কাছে আমার জানার বিষয় হল:
সিএনজি স্টেশন নিয়ে লিখতে পারবো কিনা?
সিএনজি স্টেশন ও অটোরিকশা স্টেশন একই তাই লিখতে পারবেন 🤗
ধন্যবাদ প্রিয় ভাই
