The government will continue spending to expand the coverage of the public transport network, Bernama reports. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak stated this following a visit yesterday to KL Sentral, where he conducted a walkabout to obtain feedback from public transport users.
“At KL Sentral earlier, public transport users were aware of government efforts to enhance public transport efficiency, but feel there is room for improvement. I welcomed their views and assured them that the government will continue to improve services and expand the network coverage,” he said in Facebook and Twitter posts following the visit.
In the tabling of the Eleventh Malaysia Plan back in May, Najib announced that public transport was set to be improved on in a big way. These include a number of rail projects in the Klang Valley, primarily the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit (KVMRT) system from Sungai Buloh to Kajang and its Line 2 extension connecting Sungai Buloh to Serdang and Putrajaya, the latter set to become operational by 2022.
Additionally, there is also the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line 3, which connects Bandar Utama to Klang. Construction of the line – which will run over 36 km and have 25 stations – is due to begin next year, with expected completion in 2020.

Of course. Malaysia boleh
normal rakyat pay for transport, food, home, education, tax etc and got <rm1k br1m. not so normal rakyat get everything for free and got 2.6mil donation. same2 la. where got korup
Bugis warrior power. Not everyone is blessed with that kind of power. Can attract billions of ringgit in donations.
Government to continue investing in transportation??
The ongoing MRT project is funded by issuing the Danainfra retail sukuk, which in other words is borrowings from the public and not from tax collection. We are still paying tolls for major highways. Our taxis still drive crappy old protons. Port holes and flood are common.
Just what sort of investment are we talking about here? Cost to change signboards because we felt inclined to rename the roads?
then…?
Dear PM A.K.A head of government,
Isn’t that what you suppose to do as a government?
Why you make that statement contradict with what you said last year? Additional income from fuel subsidy is for public transport development.
Shut your mouth and start working.
jibby how la u get people to donate rm2.6 billion without any strings attached whatsoever!? you should be leader of the free world la! with you talents in soliciting bribes, errr sorry i mean ‘donations’, u can end global poverty! jibby boleh!
They ought to rethink sunway brt’s fare. Expensive as hell to charge rm5.60 for a <6km trip.
gov never invest but wasting rakyat money…seriously , which project Gov spent got +ve return? PK? NFC? All profits are channel to cronies even doing well and Gov got nothing..
They promised to upgrade public transport since the last PM. Nothing special being see so far. Waiting time still a nightmare esp buses. Prasarana kiri masuk, kanan keluar rakyat’s complaint.
Pakcik rasa mmg itu lah yang negara patut buat dulu.
Pengankutan awam (jarak dekat dan jauh)
Tapi kualiti barangan perlu diambil kira, bukan asal boleh sahaja.
Harga yang munasabah supaya orang kampung macam pakcik ni boleh menggunakan.
Disini pakcik nak cadangkn projek keretapi laju tu kalau boleh jgn ambil dari cina ambik dr jepun.
MALAYSIA GOV aka (JIBBY) invested too much on land and real estate, need something to boost his baby’s growth. Hence infrastructure is a must to make it happen, if still not enough, he will have to cut interest, Release DIBS, Reduce RPGT and etc to make the ball rolling back.
