This really going backward… can’t even work on improving transport system

Yep, hitting the reverse gear. Other SEA countries move forward we move backwards.

Really proving what Jocelyn Chia say is correct. An undeveloped country.

current bus vs mini bus

how cheap is mini bus?
maintenance ada spare part tak?

In front klcc there cars and tourist bus just park on the road blocking rapidkl bus route....what difference would bus mini do?

flood all roads with buses

then everyone take bus?

Meanwhile Singapore already using EV buses
Meanwhile escalator in Bdr Tasik Selatan LRT still rosak
Meanwhile automated ticket machine still rosak

Also bring back sammy vellu pls.

Ayam saw current bus oredi shrink much in size compared to intrakota era..still need smaller?

Probably used as last mile transportation. What is missing or lacking now is the last mile connection. So it makes sense to get a smaller mini buses as this missing connection.
If they bring back bus mini as previously, we have plan to fail the MRT/LRT facilities.

Nowadays only bangla and b40 aunty uncle will take bus one la.

last time bus not moving till 80% filled

If electric or hybrid mini bus then ok.

like i said can buy mini bus
but does it still in production? spare part ada?

not sure everyone aware or not that most buses in KL are big, cant even drive thru those taman. mini bus or smaller bus can solve this problem.

Mini bus succeeded not just because of size but because of free market. It was in the interest of the bus driver and conductor to be as efficient as possible to maximise profit.

Alot of ppl also say this model is the best. But I bet once they realise this model also leads to overloading and speeding bus drivers they will then say Rapid KL number one and ban mini bus

Actually this. The older suburbs in PJ were well served by the mini busses. When they switched to the bigger busses they had to relocate most of the bus stops to the bigger and busier roads. So yeah this is potentially one good point

what happened to this rapidkl mini bus?

do EV buses pls

Why is it going backwards. It is perfect for city areas and feeder bus to LRT/MRT. Just look at HK mini bus. Bringing back minibus concept does not mean we are bringing back the old type of minibus.

we already have brt already



which is kinda wasted btw

Use van better la
Can go everywhere
Neeed bus lane too

Excellent idea.
Will become main medium for transportation for the foreign worker.

No, it's a good chance to get rid of rempit moto ..... you know what I mean.

You can follow HK style of mini bus. Don’t allow standing and they must follow designated routs only

I hate mini bus. Reminds me of those days of overloading and reckless driving.

Yes. Fully support more busses. Cheaper. Easy to expand. Can do it quick.

Even better if we start implementing exclusive bus lanes. To make the busses faster and encourage more people to use it if they want to avoid the jam. Just wave at those losers stuck in their cars. Buhbye.

MRT is the best thing to happen in Malaysia

We should have more MRT not more buses

yes. thats the intention.

Who need bus when we got grab already.
So backward.

No worries, mini buses will find a way to squeeze through, believed me ya.

We need GOJEK. seriously.

Our MRT need feeder buses as our development is not properly planned. Nowadays, most people still need to drive to stations to go take MRT

I know ready one day sure sohai idea will come out. Just like 100% tint last time.

Bus backward? Every major cities in the world still have buses.

Grab? You T20? Even T20 won’t take grab everyday!

Many Grab drivers in /k so upset with this news.

Bring back the mini busses!

If the only way forward is for them to break traffic rules might as well dump jpj in the trash.
Already no balls to enforce basic things like signals etc.

Why is this idea sohai? You think minibus is like the old minibus? Have you seen HK minibus?

She is correct all this while, its only Malaysian that is made up of ore butthurt losers je tak boleh tahan fakta.

According to most kekonomist, Malaysia's potential is the biggest in the world due to the 'developing nation' status.... but that in fact to mask the facts we are indeed not developed in any sense at all.

Bas mini at this climate and age?

Let's see how many willing to spend time in mini buses smelling other people's sweat and body odor, without no aircond.

All talk like transport experts.

yes mini bus or bus vans

need to get from taman taman to ler/mrt stations

Have to monitor if its private sector free enterprise. If its run by Rapid you can have some assurance they will adhere to SOP

If full for profit need to keep a close eye

but but later... Bas Mini Wilayah ----> Bas Mini Banggalah

If bus mini is private enterprise..its not going to be helpful..it will be profit orientated..they only choose the profitable routes and during peak hours...

More choices for consumer and competition in market. Good.

Grab car kata jangan

Let's hear what he says. Complain cepat macam giler

Current RapidKL bus only 1 hour once. Very bad.

But much less passengers now. So maybe that is their excuse.

But when you need to use the bus, yilek.

So yes, bring back bus mini.

Becos last time the bus operator no tongkat

Can always regulate the pricing and servicing route

finally, please improve the public transport system.

i believed mini bus + good system can do many good then not doing anything.

Once they monopolised, they don't give a shit

Yes, that is the way. Both also compete to serve better

unless profit guarantee
if not . with regulate pricing and route....no profit who want do this business?

So u want another tongkat kompeni that suck the citizens tax money indefinitely?

Remove petrol subsidy and automatically everyone take public transport. No need bus mini ka, wilayah ka. It's all supply and demand.

It's open tender. Whoever wants get it.

Definitely it will become Bas Mini Banggalah.
You'll see.

i want this

Actually as a guy who passes by some LRT stations that doubles as Rapid depots i can tell you during peak its not their fault

All of them are stuck at the station. They cant budge kek. Kesian also the driver during those times

Now if mini busses can ply the less busier roads and served the suburbs better i see got some potential here

what about songthaew and tuktuk?

car lovers kasi input on public transportation...malaysia memang terbaik

we need cheap labour then everybady no money then can ride the bus

HK is in the midst of changing all their buses to electric

and we're doing this

Herd mentality when ran out of ideas
Kekwa

Tambang 60 sen sekali naik

What is needed is feeder busses to/from all LRT/MRT stations to encourage people not to drive. Coverage must be extensive so the most anyone has to walk is 200/300 meters from their home, and max every 5 minute during peak hours.

mini bus higher running cost and need more driver. Now a day, not many people wanted to drive bus anymore, good luck looking for driver.
You just need a system that can track the buses live location and prevent them from sneaking will be very good.

Just improve rapid kenot

New gomen needs new "project" mah

Later kpkb about khalwat, etc cos men fetch women….

how to consider it as a khalwat when you are riding on the road?

all these while even the free gokl bus got that system lah, you can track em via apps

Just wait and see… anything is possible, I suppose.

last time also I belip everyone walk a lot. like me sg way have to walk half a km to the nearest bus stop, then when arrived at kotaraya I have to walk again and take another mini bus.

walk walk walk...

nah, I belip less women will take gojek in kl ( due to security issues ), but we need this gojek as last mile service

easier for me to go to pu-cheong on gojek rather than to drive there

Bus driver attitude also is a problem, like to take long and many breaks for tea time, prayers etc

Better to implement with autonomous driving, no need those drivers

malaysians mostly are BOB (badan orang besar)

mana boleh fit in mini bus?

EV mini bus… hnnngggg.
Good for first and last miles.

Make it pink!

Tuk-tuk is the best. They can wait anywhere there is high people traffic, i.e., condos, shop lots, restaurants, office blocks, malls, lrt stations, etc. to handle the last mile.

Support the idea. Temporarily.



Only allow me to hold the door handle bar bergayut around KL. Sekali lagi.



Then please throw the idea into tong sampah vavi mini pink bus horrible experience kena push squeeze into the back or middle.

Just resign la bodo. Can't even solve such a simple issue

lol he wants to bring back bus mini concept, not the freaking pink bus mini. why so many people salty

we can do eco friendly modern cashless bus mini servicing less populated routes to mrt stations. right now bus panjang2 pun org tak naik.

the implementation confirm like taik since malaysia but the idea can be polished more.

Why backwards? It's only logical. It's easier to deploy lots of small busses than 1 full bus. This increases frequency and improves consistency too. Even better at the expense of private companies. Honestly, I'd question why it was gone in the first place. It's perfect for city roads.

mini bus last time rempit kaokao... still want bring back mini bus... hahaha

run out of ideas. u-turn

this mini bus idea is good lah, i bet u all don't see the positive side of it.

Plenty of PPR, condo and housing area with car park at roadside and making it narrow, with this mini bus it is much easier for them to enter residential area.

Improve public transport = make more walk way = alot of money needed.

And with walkway built, rempit, Pisang goreng stall, buahbuahan stall, hueger stal all flood in and don't forget those abandon vehicles and rubbishes too

It was convenience last time... until it was too much. they merempit like hell but we rarely saw any accident of it or heard any that was crazy.

the frequency is crazy... since they chase trip... more trip means more money. Until rapid come with aircond bus all become strawberry and choose it less and the bus condition was worse so... good bye.

look so kawaiii weiii

can be used as tourist attraction

make sure its on time la

hehe

for urban area.. S-bahn better .. but need alot of forward planning and political will.

Pakai Ev mini bus la, jimat petrol ah

meanwhile people like you vote to abolish GST

I agree as well. Anyway, A Loke did mention they are considering Gojek as well, some time back. Let’s wait and see

That’s our dilemma, isn’t it. Any empty spaces will be used for hawkers.

masuk dalam sikit

Good, but no monopolize please.

Can consider scooters as well. Like those beam for rents. But have to regulate or come up with some guidelines else they also become roadkill

But you'd be surprised, I've actually seen a young lady use a non electric one regularly take it from her office to the LRT station. Every evening when I fetch my kids, timing is right can see her pushing off her scooter. Topkek I cut her earlier she cuts me back later when I'm waiting in the jam

Support this as some roads in PJ are quite narrow

We have EV Bus for few years already - GOKL Green bus.
PJ transit bus are all EV.
