KUALA LUMPUR: The 30% discount initiative through the Madani30 promotional code for Electric Train Service (ETS) and Ekspres Rakyat Timuran (ERT) tickets received encouraging response with more than 21,000 tickets sold so far.
Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd (KTMB) chief operating officer Afzar Zakariya said the promotion reflects the company’s commitment together with the government, in helping the people reduce travel costs, especially with the rising cost of living.
He said the offer involves all ETS services for the Johor Baru-Padang Besar route as well as the Johor Baru-Tumpat route, and is valid for travel on weekdays, Monday to Thursday, from April 15 to Oct 14.
“This promotion is open to all users for the standard class, making it easier for users to plan their journeys in advance whether for work or leisure.
“This initiative by the Transport Ministry not only increases access to quality public transport, but also supports efforts to promote the transition to more sustainable, comfortable and efficient modes of transport as well as improving connectivity between cities and regions,” he said.
He said this when appearing as a guest on the Jendela Fikir: Rel Menghubungkan Rakyat, Menggerakkan Negara programme produced by Bernama Radio, yesterday.
The 30% discount for the purchase of ETS and ERT tickets using the promotional code Madani30 will end this Thursday.
