Hmm..,

He's expecting a 'shinkansen/tgv-like' train service. That's all I can say.

Nevertheless, I totally disagree with the author about reconstructing new building at Butterworth terminus but 100% agreed about reconstructing new toilets at the terminus. Hehehe...

Then again, I support the idea of having KTMB bosses occasionally ride onboard on an intercity train just to make sure that everything that spent in million ringgit is on the right track.

Focus and Projection

Honestly, no matter what our professions are, if we are not willing to accept criticism positively...then, the road to progress will be a long one.

In the business world today where to find one's niche is to be competitively viable... there should be a more effective way, in any Government-linked projects...Malaysia has done fairly well if you look at it in a certain perspective. The ability to tap new resources has helped its progress in many ways.

It has relations to how it reflects the system of governance, directly.

This is the asset of the Malaysian Government when dealing with many other mega projects...The soft-approach and friendly atmosphere it created...could be perceived as pessimistic to some quarters....even huge capital losses to a certain extent.

Emmmm...complain !

To get a good train service... right time arriving & departure....high speed for a distance intercity & state by train surely it takes time for KTMB to serve all that to us . For me KTM service is better then before and we should be proud of it .

Well..

3 hours from KL Sentral to Butterworth should be decent to attract people taking KTM in the future..

PLUS!

That is why, the PLUS was never built alongside the railway tracks...

PLUS was an alternative and to expand the transport network in Malaysia...

By efficiency, PLUS has achieved its purpose to link major towns faster than by rail....

The ball is now...in the Railway Administration, and what double-tracking can really provide to the masses.

In Malaysia, it's economical to travel by rail or bus, as compared to driving (over long distances...and toll fees can kill you)...but public transport restricts you from getting to places without them....

But i will admire KTMB over bus services... it has no "ULAT TIKET"...
