The Beijing Municipal Government on Thursday decided to make the eleventh
day of every month the "day of lining up."

Xinhua News Agency says the move hopes to improve public etiquette and
eliminate people who are used to cutting in line.

An official was quoted as saying, "Citizens are urged to realize the
necessity of lining up for things when the number '11' appears."

Many campaigns have been launched at all levels in the city to call for
better behavior in public, trying to create a more polite environment for
the 2008 Olympic Games.
