KL Public Transportation Sux

Ahh... after a week, finally here again to blog rant again. Today I left office at around 5:40 something because wanna get home earlier to rest down and enjoy the weekend. Hmmm... but when we reach Kelana Jaya LRT Station, the doors of the LRT Station were shutted half, and my friend told me whenever the train got problem, they would shut the door. Then we went on to the platform there and waited for the train as usual lo... The LRT make an announcement saying that they encountered some problem at the Sri Rampai station there and the train service would serve only between Kelana Jaya till Setiawangsa. We was like why.... grrr... why not stuck at Melati or Wangsa Maju. So we start to do our planning on which public transport should we take in order to reach Wangsa Maju. At last we decided to take the LRT till Masjid Jamek and switch to take bus from there because there are plenty of bus which would go Wangsa Maju.

After few minutes of waiting, finally 1 train arrive and we get into the train. First few station was like normal and nothing wrong with it except the people in the train is unusually a lot. Then start from Asia Jaya station, the train tend to stop there more than 5minutes, and people start getting impatient and squeeze'ing. Especially for the KL Sentral stations where it stops for more than 15minutes I think. Then after a FEW minutes, we finally reached Masjid Jamek Stations. As I have expected, the station was packed by people. That's ok for me, but what annoyed me was the poeple anxiously getting into the train when we are trying to get off from the train. What annoyed me more was when we reach to the ticketting checkpoint there, the staff there was actually scolding those people who trying to get into the platform to catch the train. That fella says in Malay "Nak masuk, masuk je la... tren 1 jam 1 sahaja.. lu orang tunggu je la kat bawah.. kalau tak nak tunggu, keluar...." (Translated to english "If you wanna enter then just enter.. There is only a train on each hour and you guys just wait down there.. If not then get off from here") I was like WTH.... if not because of your faulty train, your bloody station wouldn't be so congested la... What a great service they providing there... Then nevermind....

As we get out from the Masjid Jamek LRT station, the surround of the stations was flooded by the water flows from monsoon drain. I think there is someone drown there as I saw some of the Bomba (Firemen) rush to the drain nearby. We stand there like a fool thinking should we just dip into the flood and cross to the Star LRT, as the bus stations is more further. Then finally we recovered from our foolishness when I recalled that there is another underground tunnel which can pass to the other side of the station. Luckily the other side was not flooded, and we managed to get to the bus station - dry. XD

Still not the end of the story yet. There are really lots of bus going to maluri. I mean a lot... Really alot... the bus going to Maluri would never lost from your sight. I briefly count, and I've found that it was more than 5 bus in 10minutes. Yet no bus was going to Wangsa Maju. Aih... after waiting for few minutes.. erm.. perhaps is more than few already.. then finally saw 191 coming. I was happy awhile coz finally saw a bus going to Wangsa Maju. Who knows, when it reach at the bus station, that bus driver straight away change the number and not going to Wangsa. I was (!-.-).... So you guys tell me how? Some Menteri suggest us to support public transport, yet don't even bothered to ensure the service quality. They really should be the first to experience the feeling of travelling using public transport.
