Our next question was how many times a month on average did they
come to watch movies at Golden Village Cineplexes. The question
had 4 options. The options were once a month, twice a month, thrice
a month, more than 3 times or never. When we collected the results
we found that 26 people visited Golden Village Cineplexes once a
month. This is equivalent to50%. We made an assumption that the
movies screened at Golden Village Cineplexes do not affect the
frequency of visits to Golden Village Cineplexes. We asked this
question based on the rational that if a Golden Village Cineplexes
was convenient to reach by Mass Rapid Transport, an average person
would therefore go to Golden Village Cineplexes more often.

Our next question was whether the surveyees thought that Golden
Village Cineplexes are strategically located for patrons to come over
and watch movies. There were 2 options for the question, either yes
or no. Surveyees also had to explain why they chose either yes or no.
When we collated the results, we found out that 38 people felt that
the locations of the Golden Village Cineplexes were strategically
placed for people to come over and watch movies. This is 73% of all
the surveyees. The majority of the reasons were that Golden Village
Cineplexes was very convenient to travel to as they are near many
Mass Rapid Transport stations and because Golden Village
Cineplexes have amenities such as supermarkets and libraries inside
them. This makes the Golden Village Cineplexes more appealing to
the public. This question was asked to find out what was the public’s
mentality about the locality of Golden Village Cineplexes.

Our fourth question was whether the surveyees usually come to

Golden Village Cineplexes by Mass Rapid Transport. There were two
options to this question, either yes or no. When we collated the
results we found out that 27 people said that they usually come to
Golden Village Cineplexes by Mass Rapid Transport. This is about
52%. We asked this question to see how big a factor proximity
between Mass Rapid Transport station and Golden Village Cineplexes
was in affecting the number of people visiting Golden Village
Cineplexes.

Our last question was whether the surveyee would still come to
watch movies at Golden Village Cineplexes if there was no Mass
Rapid Transport station in the vicinity. There were 2 options to the
question, either yes or no. When we collated the results, 30 people
said that will not come to watch movies at Golden Village Cineplexes
if there was no Mass Rapid Transport station nearby. This question
was asked to find out if the nearby Mass Rapid Transport station was
that important in choosing whether they wanted to watch a movie in
Golden Village Cineplexes.

Conclusion
After conducting this survey on 52 people, we have therefore come
to a conclusion that majority of the general public will go to watch
movies at Golden Village Cineplexes mostly because of the fact it is
located near Mass Rapid Transit Stations as it makes the journey to
the Golden Village Cineplexes more convenient. Most of them also
took the Mass Rapid Transit to watch movies at Golden Village
Cineplexes as they found it convenient, as well as the fact that they
would not go to watch movies at Golden Village Cineplexes if there
were no Mass Rapid Transit stations nearby.

Our hypothesis has been proved.
