in Malaysia.. unless the station at your doorstep.. No one would like to walk... trust me...

What is the difference between Malaysia, and those other Asian countries I mentioned then?

Only been to Singapore and Kyoto area. Their cities were built with pedestrian and train in mind.

Malaysia roads are never pedestrian friendly.

To add on, its too easy to own a car in Malaysia.

Snatch theft.

different mentality...

in Malaysia.. drive car. high class.. ego booster..
use public transport.. low class.. people around u look down.. challenge to ego

Mrt mana tew sampai klcc

Nak ikottttt

If that the case why built now? Since it take time for rudership better built it when ridership mature lo.

A stretch line like KJ will grows as it is commuting the commuters INTO THE CITY. Ridership will grow as the development around d city improving. Im not surprise if commuters as far as Klang Bukit tinggi might take lrt KJ line to go to KLCC.

While circular line will only help u to roam AROUND the city.

It is still needed but maybe not now due to financial burden.

You confuse between LRT and MRT is it? I think you mean LRT Putra Line. Yes, full and pack with people during peak hour.
But not the case for the current MRT Line 1.
MRT Line 1 does not go to KLCC and from your story I can say you got the wrong line.

Every world class city has good public transport infrastructure. Malaysia is moving to a wrong direction. IF it’s too costly to do it all at once least one major projects should happen.

Putar line is no longer MRT loh... It is KJ LRT jor...
So the accurate statement is MRT then exchange LRT to KLCC.

Now the question is that whether our friend taking the second round is referring to the LRT or MRT?
My experience of taking KJ LRT was either wait for a few rounds or ride on an "early train" depending stns....

The circle line is about connectivity. Out of 40 stations, there are supposely 13 stations have interchange with LRT, MRT, KTM etc. It is like a shortcut jumping from another one line/destination to another destination and tie up all loose end.

the direction of population growth usually will be concentrated along the line. Just like how highways help in boosting the township, the rails will have same impact.

However in case of MRT3 i believe it is a strong case for connectivity which current rail transport is lacking now.

Correct. Haiz...what a waste. MRT 3 is the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle, so to speak. It will increase connectivity exponentially which will have many spillover benefits. Increased mobility means more business for retails, motels, tourist spending, reduced congestion/improved productivity, improved image as 1st class city, increased property/land value, wealth effects, increased assessment, quit rent income etc. Many not so clear benefits that cannot be measured by ticket sales alone...

Soon no need so mafan liao new mrt2 line can reach klcc east station. just need to interchange at TRX. MRT 1 ----> MRT 2

101% agreed !!

Just cross over the road to mrt. I also lazy to walk.
As long as Car is affordable for most the Malaysian. No Way to walk to use MRT/LRT

Don't be too sad... I believe 3 years later MRT 3 project will revive. Then HSR comes later... This project is just cancelled and on hold not mean it's totally useless. Prioritizr the main issues first.

Lrt have been completed many years ago. Has population growth near lrt faster?

What is difference between mrt and lrt?
