No matter how govt will continue to enhance the public transport, it's for future planing, don't wait until last minute when all price shoot up skyhigh can't come down. Even China so big, their few cities public transport also top notch and keep improving. So not just only suitable for small countries Singapore or HK area... Bigger countries like Korea, Japan also suitable. Jakarta Indonesia also rushing to build up the public rail system. Vietnam also dying to have it more public rail transport. Middle East oil rich countries now also working close with China try to build better public transport system in their own country.
For Malaysia especially in city area definitely suitable do for better public rail system and connect to few satellite townships or suburbs area. Govt will continue to build more houses around station.
The problem with Klang Valley's rail is it is too KL-centric - nearly all lines meet in KL, hence the interchanges are mostly around KL too. There are many who stay at suburbs & satellite cities (PJ, SJ, etc) and work in KL, but at the same time, there are also many who stay in one satellite city (e.g Subang Jaya) but work in another satellite city (PJ, Kajang, Shah Alam, etc). Problem is, taking rail from one satellite city to another is too much of a hassle. Imagine someone staying in USJ and works in Bandar Utama takes the LRT from Taipan towards Pasar Seni, then change to MRT & travel to Bandar Utama when driving directly via the NKVE makes more sense in terms of time & distance?For Malaysia especially in city area definitely suitable do for better public rail system and connect to few satellite townships or suburbs area. Govt will continue to build more houses around station.
What Klang Valley needs more are rail lines that interconnect suburbs & satellite cities - covering as far as Puncak Alam in the north, Klang in the West & Sepang in the South with multiple circular lines. MRT3 will be one such circle line but it is again, KL-centric. We probably need circle lines that crosses areas like Kota Damansara, Kelana Jaya, Subang Jaya, Kota Kemuning, Putrajaya, just to name a few.
