I realized that some hawker centers do not have the return tray policy/ corner. However, that does not mean that we cannot return our tray to the cleaner auntie/ uncle after consuming our food or bring them to the cleaning point. I think it is a gracious action to do if we can make an effort to leave the table clean and free of bowls & plates after consuming. Imagine you are in a popular eating place whereby the cleaners are overwhelmed by the number of tables to clear, wouldn't it be comforting to find a table which is clean or at least free of bowls/ plates so that you can put down your tray to consume your food without having to clear yourself or getting the cleaner to clear? If everyone makes a bit more effort to care for another person, we are definitely going to get more than just a pleasant dining experience.
My humble advice: Don't only do things because you are being told or because there is a certain reward/ recognition tagged to it. Try to do things for someone who probably never had the chance to thank you, because when you are able to do that, you will truly understand the meaning of giving smile emoticon
