refer to paultan website /2018/03/27/mrt-needs-250000-daily-passengers-to-break-even/
it needs 250K passenger per day to break even
underground station need more maintenance cost like electricity fee....
the running cost also cannot cover, why to build it?
most of the station is not doorstep unlike Singapore / HK..
it needs to change to shuttle bus..
if i park my car at MRT car park, it also costs me RM4.3 per entry.
likesaid if i go from Sungai Buloh to Uptown and park my car to MRT car park, the cost will be
RM 4.3 car park + ( RM 3.2 (TTDI) + RM 1 Shuttle bus ) * two ways = RM 12.7 per day.
If i buy a parking coupon for park whole day, the cost is RM 5, the remaining cost enough for me to cover the petrol .. why need to take MRT and take longer time to back home.
Yeap doesnt make sense to take MRT which suppose cheaper if not faster or more convenient. Unless you are within walking distance i suppose
