From today (June 16), there will be one month of free rides on the Rapid KL public transport network. This was announced by prime minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob at the launch of the MRT Putrajaya Line Phase One, which is ongoing now.
The free rides will be for a month starting today. It will include train rides on the MRT, LRT and KL Monorail. Also included are Rapid KL bus rides, feeder buses and the Sunway BRT.
The first phase of the MRT Putrajaya Line is 17.5 km long and has 12 stations in total, with nine new stations joining three existing stations that we’re familiar with from the MRT Kajang Line.
The three existing stations previous are Kwasa Damansara, Kampung Selamat and Sungai Buloh. From there, the line will follow MRR2 to Kepong, tracing Jalan Kepong and then Jalan Ipoh. The stations along this route are Damansara Damai, Sri Damansara Barat, Sri Damansara Sentral, Sri Damansara Timur, Metro Prima, Kepong Baru, Jinjang, Sri Delima and Kampung Batu.
Seven on the stations have park-and-ride facilities. The estimated travel time from Kwasa Damansara to Kampung Batu on Jalan Ipoh is 24 minutes. The new line will be served by 20 driverless trains sets, each with four cars for a total capacity of 1,200 passengers. With the train comes the feeder buses, and 13 routes will start today.
Phase one of the MRT Putrajaya Line opens to the public at 3pm today.

Janji bukan BN. Msians taknak Umno BN
Too desperate to push your failed PH agenda. Nothing constructive at all. I read your whole comment and would only imagining you were crying while writing them.

Wow
Give free means more headache for operators. They cannot even do a good job when passengers pay, what more free. Anyway best of luck!
it’s easy to be negative especially if we’re assuming things. give also wrong, don’t give also wrong. sometimes i pity our politician.
Depends politicians which side. We pity those with 60 years ruling experience and knows what they need to do, we don’t pity 22months failed gomen politicians who not know head or tail how to manage the country.
In life there is NEVER a free lunch.
The sidedoor dude give you some sweeteners,cos Assmin n Tengku Z have been spewing dragon fire to scare us with abolishing fuel subsidies.
Dont be surprised,u wake up one morning, “10 % GST launched”, and B40 only get fuel coupons.
I’d rather pay 10% GST to BN than having my right to own & drive a car taken away by DAP.
90% of Malaysians 30mil ciTizens hav decided to bury the hopeless BN. so Say NO to BN…

Kudos to the Govt for reprioritising public transports after previous 22months of neglect!!
IT’s free now. So if got problem again, don’t make noise.
Quite true. It is trial period to test out real world ride traffic and of course problems will bound to happen and they will have to work out the kinks in this new system. Give them time. Better public transport is good for all.
Why not do it big discount for long term but give for free? Encourage public transport for 70% discount for 1 to 2 year, so people can plan to sell or keep their car and you subsidy less petrol.
Rail rides are cheap enough for irregular usage. If you travel regularly like me, a big cost saving can come from monthly unlimited pass

I rather pay double to get punctual and more frequent buses, lrts and Mrts than free but lousy services
Well said. I couldn’t agree with you more.
The consistency is horrendous. Despite the apps Pulze, it’s useless, it doesn’t track the bus whereabouts, just scheduled movement, which is again useless. People are trying to go to work on time, those with office job / manufacturing can not rely on the bus service. Lenggang kangkung masuk kerja pukul 10am boleh pakai bas servis. Bila tanya bus captain, kena sound balik tak pandai tengok jadual, tapi dia sendiri tak ikut jadual. GPS sender for “Pulze” apps also non-functioning, but customer service selalu ingat passenger dumb tak pandai tengok. Serious revamp needed for Prasarana.
I use PULSE regularly and I have no problem with its current implementation. As a user, why should I need to know the whereabouts of all the buses in my area? I only need to know at my stop which bus will come at what time and PULSE gives me that info to plan my journeys. What I would like to see better is how much cost of each ride & stop.
Well when you actually planned your journey AND follow the bus schedule, trying to get to work, and then the bus didn’t arrive, then you’ll understand. Please try 752 Bus LRT Putra Heights at 7:00am onwards.
syukur
What will happend if they have monthly pass
Easy. The free ride is extended to other modes of RAPID transportations.
Great government
Great country.. God bless Malaysia
Is this for Malaysians only, or foreign visitors, too?
It is free for all. Let’s Make Malaysia Great Again!
Thank you for free service.
Good in a way bad in a way too..its how u think
Just hope for the best to all Malaysians
