  • A BRAKE caliper hydraulic leakage on a Light Rail Transit (LRT) train caused the disruption of the Kelana Jaya LRT line yesterday, said Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd CEO Datuk Amir Hamdan.

          Not mentioned here or in any news reports that MRT disruptions were attributed to brake caliper failure. Again what relevance does relating LRT to this, as if comparing apples to durians.

  • Because it is the same company la Prasarana. Lesson should be learnt. Remember those Waja days of power window breakdown? Until X70 power window free problem also people talking rubbish about Proton those Waja days.

      Prasarana does not manufacture the brake calipers for either LRT nor MRT so I failed to see the relevance trying to link these two and further irrelevance try linking Proton to Prasarana nor do I see the relevance between brake calipers and power windows.
