Do u think so? i dun agree with that, mayb it was good that time..
Taking express bus does not give much good experience to me, too many problems and uncomfortable, i have no choice but to take it..sigh. Recently the price raised for 30% since Raya till now, even in normal weekdays. RM35 PG-KL, that was Super VVIP price in the past. Not to mention the price (since petrol n diesel cost are sky high), the service of this company disappointed me many times
- Never punctual during departure
- The staffs at station with poor attitude (Ask which bus never answer!)
- Poor directive for passenger (that bus going where?wat time?)
- Drivers chatting loudly and smoking
- Malfunction chair, hv to keep straight or flat the whole journey!
- Stop at rest tol too long!
- Recently the bus will drive into Taiping to refill diesel, got once it took 30 mins!
- Stop 2-3 times at least
- Drive slowly sometimes (I dun ask for speeding, but driving at 80km/hr is not express at all)
- The last 2 times i took were KL back to Butterworth, 2.30pm bus reached jetty at 8.30pm, 6 hours! (my family were waiting me for dinner, and i still need to take ferry!)
- My juniors who took Transnational at 3pm on the same day, arrived even earlier at 7 smth.
Poor public transport service causing ppl to abandon it, if my saga is not that old, i would rather drive back if there are enough people to share. PG-KL still not so bad, KL-Butterworth really disappointing. I asked the driver that day about entering Taiping to refill, he replied it is company policy, what to do?
Transnational has RM0.10 extra charge for insurance, kinda weird :p
Another thing i dislike is, the condition in pudu station. So many foreigners, so many ppl shouting, the smokey air, the narrow space, and the high risk of stealing! Not to mention the traffic condition there during peak season, you'd better go earlier if u dun wan to waste ur Airasia!
Why S'pore has excellent public transport? not we dun have the facilities, but its about the attitude, the education, the system, lack of improvement and competition.
I seldom take Transnational, but there are counters in UM and University Hospital. I dun have to go or ask frens to buy tickets from Pudu earlier with this good accessibility available. So I think i will give a try on transnational next week when back, AND we will see any improvement or not.

aiya...is like that 1 lar...
so far i had taken so many express buses,the most excellent bus is Nice. It is really nice, with food, water and comfortable seats. Of course, it is twice more expensive than other ordinary buses, and you can only catch the bus at Old KL railway station.
The other bus company I prefer is KKKL. Not very sure about in KL area, but for me staying in Malacca, it is the safest and most comfortable bus ever. Also, the bus fare is inexpensive.
icic.. remember chun tsu? same school with us, classmates of shu chien, kok fang, kar kheng them. he also always take Nice bus in railway station. With double price sure better service n facilities lor. KL-PG still the busiest route in north, dun think kkkl is running here, its mroe of south m'sia :)
All I know is that KKKL does come to KL. I used to take KKKL from Malacca to KL. From Pg, yes it does, but it may be just tumpang bus to elsewhere. Just few days ago, Monday night, I took KKKL from pg back to Malacca. Because there are still a lot more seats, ppl going to KL joined and occupied the seats.
