The Ultimat3 YapThomas

I took the Rapid KL bus Number 105 to go to Singapore Airlines HQ…
It is in the morning around 10, i took the bus..
So it brought me one whole round.. and it reach my destination one hour later.
Why? because of the freaking jam.. and it was so chaotic when it reaches
Medan Pasar..

So, here is the routes that I’ve taken..

See!! it says 17-20 minutes for each journey!! at the bottom..
It took me one freaking hour just to reach my destination..

Rapid KL, to me is well intergrated..
It connects to every possible points in Kuala Lumpur by bus and train..

My findings is that, people are so reluctant to take the bus..
I don’t know why?
Citizens of Kuala Lumpur must be educated to take public transportation..
They must be educated on the routes available, and how they could
connect from one point to another point..

I remember myself taking the Bus no. 105, somewhat a month ago..
A youth in his 20s, rather 28, I forgot, is the driver of the bus..
So rare I can see and meet a driver of this young age..
He said that, most of the bus drivers is not helpful and just do his/her
job driving the bus, but neglects CUSTOMER SERVICE…
I agrees with him 100%…

The bus I took yesterday was okay, leaves on time, but stuck in a jam -_-
One guy boards the bus at Medan Pasar and ask if he could get to
Jalan Yap Kwan Seng by the same ride
The bus driver said “Naik Dulu, Naik Dulu.. nanti boleh sampai..”
He can at least educate that guy by telling him the exact number to take,
and invite him to take his bus and interchange at another stop..
Wouldn’t it be easier?

The price is reasonable at RM 2 for ONE DAY RIDE!.. UNLIMITED..
How good is that?
And still we have citizens complaining petrol incease la, toll increase la,
parking increase la and no pay increase..
Take the freaking BUS and u can save LOADS!!

That is what I am doing.. taking LRT and BUS..
LRT and BUS monthly ticket only cost me RM 125
LRT only monthly ticket cost RM 90
BUS only monthly ticket cost RM 80
Parking at LRT staton varies from RM 2-4.

I understand the weakness of the system.. but the people must have the
trust in the system for it to work.. The mayor should announce a one day
public transportation DAY.. so everyone must take public transportation..
