Finally.. We have 4
Tell you a joke.
A friend of mine, from neighbor country. He told me this before.
He was frequent traveler to KL since 90’s. It was when Malaysia economy emerged very fast, due to many factors, under the ruling of Tun M.
That was time when our Putra LRT, now Rapid KL Kelana Jaya Line, firstly launched.
The poor guy was waiting for the train underground of KLCC.
He had the habit, waiting at the last platform gate. That’s pretty normal for those taking trains (MRTs) in Singapore, I guess.
However, when the train first arrived, he was shocked.
The train go all the way beyond the last gate. The train only stop in the middle of the platform, and only 4 gates in the middle opened.
Realizing that, the poor guy had to run all the way to catch the train before the door closed.
Our Putra LRT had only 2 coaches per train, buddy, even though the platform built for longer trains.
It was late 90’s.
More than 10 years after the event, only we started to use 4 coaches train. What’s wrong with us?
