Better Public Transportation Please!

Stumbled upon metformin hydrochloride brand name this article over the net.

India’s haphazard route to development has left gaping holes in environmental and urban policies, and the number of cars on the road has increased steadily over the past decade. Its cities are traffic-jammed, exhaust-choked nightmares even without the Nano. But that growth puts the Nano at the heart of an emerging debate. Should India embrace a future where every man, woman, and child owns a carbon-spewing, space-hogging, four-wheeled vehicle? Or should cities focus their efforts on public transportation systems that reserve private ownership as a luxury?

This article is ‘so malaysianised” . When malaysian government had to increase oil price , a lot of people were going against it , and some were asking to lower road tax , car prices and so on. rapid KL They are side effects 0f metformin just asking for a leverage to counter their monthly ‘oil spending’.Is lowering car price and road tax will give us a good solution for our transportation problem? Lowering car price and road tax will only encourage more people to buy more 2/4 wheelers and hog our ever packed roads more.

Even lowering the petrol price is not the real solution which might end our ‘suffering’ of traveling between home and work. And I heard people are doing demonstration over HIGH price of petrol. Mostly done by Oppositions parties. Come on guys,you know even if you are the Federal government you cant keep up with the world oil price. USA , China , Indonesia , India are some of the countries which has increased their oil price between 10-40 % . Even these WORLD SUPER POWERS ‘tak boleh tahan dah’

What rakyat really should protest for,is a better public transportation which will end all our misery!

Let’s just take myself as an example. Commuting from Cyberjaya to down town K.L ( K.L SENTRAL ) takes me 3/4 buses! . rapid KL From house to K.L SENTRAL , 2 Bus , From K.L Sentral to house , 3 Bus.  Alltogether it will take me about 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes to reach K.L Sentral. Why on earth Rapid KL cant have buses straight from Cyberjaya ( house of thousands of students ) to K.L Sentral? Which will cut short the travelling time at least by 30/40 mins. Haigh! if only the Rapid KL CEO listens to me!. Now,This will just become yet another blog post lost in cyber space. Rapid KL has one of  the best infrastructure compared to any bus company in Malaysia. It’s just their implementation is damn damn damn poor!

RAPID KL, I love u a lot!. But PLEASE buck up yourself la :(

Anyway, the easiest solution for this problem is, “tarik balik” all the menteri’s car and force them to take public transport!!

Note : This article was written the few days after they increased the oil price.

    I totally agree. I won’t say that our public transportation system is terrible. But, it’s still very bad.

    KL is the only city than has the adequate amount of public transportation facilities. I take LRT to work almost everyday. In the past one month since I moved in to KL, LRT was down 2 times, both during early morning peak hours.

    And, yesterday evening, it rained – both outside and inside LRT. hahaha. The government should upgrade our public transportation system before increasing the fuel price, so that the hike will not burden the rakyat directly.

    Try contacting Rapid KL customer service. They always have the same lame and generic response that they are shocked and take the matter seriously. They then put the onus on the passenger complaining to take more action (drivers name, exact time, exact location, any witnesses etc etc)
    Rapid KL should know that the service is terrible every day and not isolated incidences.
    Even contacting the CEO leaves no reply. It seems they dont care! Maybe they can prove all the commuters wrong

    the LRT parking service oso very bad! i used to park my car at Kelana Jaya lrt station, it happened in Oct that 3 myvi with total of 4 tyres + rim has been stolen, i am one of the victim! i parked my car near to ldp, somemore near to exit booth!

    staff thr are rude, asked me to report police myself. i called the manager, Iskandar at 012-6379xxx, he said: park at ur own risk!

    i hv to stand alone in the dark to wait for my brother coming to help me to change my spare tyre, while they staff there did not help at all.. they said:Kami baju kuning, staff biasa je, tak boleh buat apa apa pun… wat kind of attitude/service is this?

    I have email to their customer service on 17/10/2008, they replied me on 29/10/2008 saying: Thank you for writing to us on the above mentioned matter. We wish to acknowledge the receipt of your feedback. We are still investigating this matter with our Park and Ride Operator and will inform you on the outcomes as soon as possible. Meanwhile, we regretted for the unpleasant experience which you have encountered on the evening of 14 October 2008.

    BUT, until now, no news from them yet… i hv write another reminder email to them on 22/11/2008… and, no reply too…

    Rapid KL, pls la… PLEAE DO THE NECESSARY!!!
