When I travelled in Vietnam, they have drive-thru gas stations that are built for motor scooters. Cars seem awkward there. It would fit perfectly in a place like that. The general population is very poor. Motor scooters are parked outside. Having access to an electric cable doesn't work for most people. They live in apartments.
Going to a government run gas station and having the attendant swap a battery for you is the easiest way to make this work.

Even if you'd theoretically get a power outlet from an apartment onto the street, there would be no way of controlling who uses it (=probably everybody). Actually, that wouldn't even work in the apartment building I live in (in Berlin, Germany). Some people park their scooters in the courtyard... a public power outlet would probably be used for anything imagineable before a scooter would even get a half charge.
