Train freak, is certainly unique hobby here, if we talk about Malaysia.....most people in Malaysia, likes car...i like car too, that's why i study engineering...

In Japan, being a train freak, is nothing unusual

Our train system is underdeveloped and poor in comparison to our highway system.....

The technology used in Ipoh-Seremban double track, is not outdated, it is similar to those used by Queensland Rail (Australia) and most electric train lines, because our system was built in the early 1990's and early 2000's, and still expanding...

Service quality, poor, because one thing, lack of investment...

KTM Komuter always suffer delay, because lack of operable EMU's, and who is responsible for funding? The answer is the government, because they are responsible for funds, so if there is no fund, don't expect to see improvements on KTMB........


The next goal for our railway is to upgrade it to 160 km/h operation

Yes, exactly! I did that...

Where does it stop completely? Is it south of KL Sentral, just before Mid Valley?

Er, what kind of "passenger"?

Lol, suck money or money, nobody knows...

I have very clear reason why i said lack of funding...

History, has shown that after Malaysia gain independence, we built roads and highways...

One example, was the Federal Highway.....

From 1970's to today, our highway system has been expended from just a few kilometres, to more than 1xxx km...

In contrast, the current route of KTM is about 1,699 km......i am sure it was down a few km's, because of the closure of the old Ampang junction line and also Port Weld line (which was the first rail line in Malaysia)

Taking these two factors, it is obvious that railway in Malaysia is underinvested compared to road/highways in Malaysia...

Another thing, the massive railway infrastructure, was only started during 1980's, in contrast to expressways in 1960's and 1970's....

These factors, are clear proof that we need heavy investment for our railway system...

The good news is, electric train service to Ipoh from KL, will start soon....

Electric train line will be extended from Ipoh to Thai border................journey from KL to Butterworth in future, will take only 3 hours

Who?

Itu yes man?

Kesian.......budak suka main main and twisted logics

Tax haven = a place which has very low tax rate or no tax at all

Comparatively, some LYN females are the same or a bit better

Not exactly a good news, but then....only one territory in Malaysia that is tax haven, and that is Labuan
