If you live nearby KL like Subang or PJ but stuck in traffic for 1 hour plus just to get out from your residential area for what?

I prefer live in bit outskirt but have easy access to highway..although km wise is longer but my car is moving and the journey is pleasant

Years of working. I have friends

Working in pavilion staying in melaka.
Working in bayan lepas staying in sungai petani
Working in cyberjaya staying in nilai.
Working in sg staying in jb

Travel daily.




If you stay near buy go home facing the wall lonely or go waste your time clubbing mamak i dont see the point too.

So. They do what they thought is best. Nothing wrong.

Semenyih far? So now we know why penang houseprice is skyhigh?

hi bro, peace out. the mentality of driving is unavoilable simply because the public transport system has too many flaws presently. With that, I disagree that "malaysian mentality is there d, number one choice of traveling anywhere is always driving" as it's only with the progress of time we could witness if the train + bus system could attract more people to forsake driving as the one and only means to travel.

Btw, I consider myself lucky because I've been able to use public transport to go to work. It's fast, convenient and cheap as compared to driving. So on the other hand, I don't understand why do some people opt for stucking in the jam when they have option to use public transport

20 years ago, bangi is too far from KL
25-30 years ago, Shah Alam is too far from KL
30-40 years ago, PJ is too far from KL
50 years ago, kepong/damansara/cheras is too far from CBD KL
100 years ago, kampung baru/pudu is too far from CBD KL

LOL how can i missed this thread. I moved to Semenyih at the end of last year and started to daily commute to KL ever since. I have tried public transport & drive my own car and both has it's own trade.

While driving ur own car will give u the flexibility to drive however the congested area especially Cheras and Loke Yew area will give u high blood pressure. Take into account the cost also isn't cheap nowadays with all the tolls price hike.

Taking the Komuter is an option. U can either take from Batang Benar, Bangi or Kajang. I personally prefer Bangi as the car park is build properly compared to other nearby station. However, the experience is far from pleasant especially during peak hours. I get sick quite regularly when I took train to work.

Now, i stick with driving my own car to work and planning to get a bike soon. Perhaps until the completion of MRT. Hopefully it wont turns out to be another KTM Komuter

i work in KLCC area and live in KLCC area.
Lifestyle is good. i walk home, have time to chill at home, go to gym/shops/etc in a work day.
However, i have to pay a price.........MYR5k for 2 bed room condo.

So i am thinking. Which area is the best place to stay outside of KLCC, about 30 mins away by car?
i can compromise a bit of time in a car, but not too much.

Any suggestions?

You can consider Ulu Klang area.
Need to drive on MRR2 and then AKLEH to reach KLCC.

Does that normally take 30 mins by car?

What other forms of transport is possible from Ulu Klang?

On average about 30 mins by car.
If no traffic jam - 20 mins
If heavy traffic jam - 60 mins

There are LRT stations in wangsa maju & sri rampai.
I have seen buses in the area.

Thanks Dude for this info.

It's priceless!

What's the demographics of this area like?
