Malaysia should not build MRT, LRT, Monorail system

 


 Malaysia is a rich country.

Yes, she is with the intelligent people and politicians. However, the people are not that intelligent as you imagine and the politicians too.

One mistake happened after the other but no one is being charged in court for the losses of the money from the country coffer.

For example the MRT in Malaysia is making losses every year but the CEO is still maintained and no salary cut for the incompetency people.

Why Malaysians are not thinking of some other forms of transport in the internet age just with the fingers doing the walking.

This boil down to the education in the schools. The teachers should include the information of transport in the geography lesson. It is not only map and rivers. Of course, as we have suggested with the Sociology 101 is the best. 

Why MRT in Malaysia is failed ? Read the information and you know the reasons.
