1. As for issue number 1, we don’t need any fancy entertainment system on rapid kl, save that money to make the bus more comfortable, OKU friendly, better ticketing and touch ‘n’ go system and travel with more frequency and arrive on a much shorter time. If Rapid Bas can do so, I already THANK GOD, THANK HEAVEN ALREADY!!!!
3. As for issue no. 3, I hope that disabled-friendly do not limited to the physical and visually impaired, they also have to consider audiolly impaired (deaf/pekak), put up more and bigger signages for the deaf, put up more LED or LCD display unit at the station, platform and inside the coach/train for the deaf.
4. As for issue number 4, before the funicular train come into services, many people said that I’m sceptical about the first world facilities and third world maintenance “Malaysia Boleh achievements”. Well, I prove them wrong now, it still happens. Malaysia Boleh, KRONISMA DAN RASUAH KERAJAAN MALAYSIA JAUH-JAUH LAGI/LEBIH BOLEH!!!
Because the extension of Ampang lrt line into Puchong area has become a great concern for the audioly impaired people, especially the deaf. This is simply because Malaysia Deaf Association hq is in PUCHONG!!! Many of them staying around there. SO I hope PRASARANA and SPAD will do something to improve the situation. Thank you!!!
:-)) This is really funny

I want to see whether you still can be joking/funny or not when you are deaf.
