Remember that epic LRT breakdown that stalled so ma y people? (OK there have been several but hear me out) But anyway I was supposed to meet a friend for dinner that night and he thought he will be stuck in KL till late night. I told him to take the Skypark Link instead. He never heard about it, but took it and was at our dinner early. He evaded the epic stuck Ness in KL and rode in comfort home.

Rip Skypark Link tho 😭

Truly a "1 time it's a tragedy, many times it's a statistics" stuff. 😔

But as you demonstrated, there are many ways in and out of the city center. There are backup routes in most cases.

Old story but back when rapidkl buses use tickets which is valid for a whole day per purchase, if you're lucky and your face blur sotong rezeki or something, when you're queueing to alight the bus, quite regularly you'll get someone passing a ticket they either bought or been paid forward (heheh)

Man, I couldn't remember how far back that was. Was it early after the consolidation of the private operators? I recall IntraKota one.

Idk if it was early but definitely around 2011-2012 at the latest for my anecdote - orang tua stories lmao

Oh yeah, I think I remember the one time I thought I can buy 1 ticket to go anywhere but then had to buy another ticket home. I somehow forgot how RapidKL works.
