User Perspective on the State of Public Transportation Suggestion on how to improve it Majlis Bajet Consultation 2009 21 April, 2008
Significant Problems l Poor planning of public transportation services and development l l Lack of timely investment in public transportation services l l l Uncoordinated, incomplete planning Overcrowding, network breakdown Existing networks have significant missing links and are not properly integrated Many options but services are unreliable
Organization and Regulation l l l Too many government agencies Not enough power/ability/willingness to enforce regulations “Lower-income group” low expectations Competition does not help the public transportation industry Operators may sacrifice quality, service, mobility, safety, rights of workers, etc.

KL, Rapid Penang)
Regional / local planning l l Local governments focus on traffic management and cater to cars Development planning does not include public transportation Planning is not coordinated with other governments within the region Proposed extensions usually focus on increasing operator profits rather than mobility

The Ministry of Finance would buy buses and provide capital funding where needed. LPTAs would own the buses and routes and maintain local oversight and provide direct operations subsidy where needed.
Real Investments in Public Transportation l l l Change of Attitude – We are investing in infrastructure which is an asset for this nation Rail infrastructure is the most efficient way to move people and goods Complete rail networks increase people’s mobility Better planning + mobility = better quality of life Remove thousands of cars from our roads daily Fewer jams = greater economic productivity & economic growth
