	Malaysia Blog : Putra LRT a convenience? My Foot!
		I used to think that the Putra LRT was a big convenience and it sure beats driving to the city.
		I think the worst part of riding the LRT is when you're leaving work cause everyone has some BO to spread into the LRT.
		The LRT seems to shudder, stop in the middle of tracks and doors unable to open quite frequently these days.

	Putra LRT service pathetic, sad
		For the past five to six months, the Putra LRT system has been breaking down approximately once a month.
		To be frank, RM1 million/hour is a paltry sum compared to the thousands of human resources stuck on the trains and at the stations when they are supposed to be at work contributing to the country’s economic growth.
		We will have a good laugh at the dismal figures initially, but I’m sure Putra LRT will improve the system to save its own face from constant public embarrassment.
