More like disgruntled 7 year old junior employee in a vendor rant while I agreed with some of his points there are some that shows he just small potato vendor and dont knw hell what he talking about
- he mention gov monopoly but that is a result of the past where private companies operating the train is in huge losses and end up gov Prasarana have to takeover this companies
Remember Intrakota, park may, star and putra?
KLIA ERL is owned by private which is YTL even with high ticket price they struggling to make profit due to low ridership
Public transportation seldom make money esp in Malaysia where car ownership and petrol is cheap and in the end gov had to step in and burning money every month
We are lucky actually that Bijan manifesto at least bring decent public transportation while Pakatan days is all about cancelling them as it never a profitable thing for gov
The MRT train issues is just a resulted of wear and tear and 6 out of 58 is considered good. The practise of canabilising is not because of lack of parts (Inspiro is popular upper tier models globally) but why wasting tax payer money when there is broken trains that can be salvaged for parts? Maybe as vendor they unhappy cannot screw gov money for new parts contracts? Lol
And lot of the paragraph which is written by a junior (baru 7 tahun but act know-all) is ranting about MRT Corp being “pushy” and “put all job to vendor”
Hello … vendor being paid huge amount of money to do work and you complain? Lol
Typical rent seeking mentality that our country face everyday .. vendor got contract, got money and love to lepas tangan without doing any much work
No wonder LGE and Tony Pua while doing the MRT cost cutting end up cursing the vendor up and down
Actually MRT is doing good job here in pushing them like hell - other gov linked dept and companies usually all oledi bought over by scrupulous vendors so they just going easy with them
