Feeder buses more affordable


Interesting place to visit at MRT stations, Sungai Long Golf and country Club, Sungai Long is 20 minutes by feeder bus from Bukit Dukong Station. August 23,2017.Rohizat Md Darus/Star..

I REFER to the media reports last week about Putrajaya being in talks with Grab to help ferry MRT commuters. In the reports, the finance minister’s political secretary Tony Pua was quoted as saying that the government is in talks with home grown e-hailing company Grab to provide transport services to commuters.

“Now we have new ventures, new innovative digital technologies like Grab, who can help us defray the cost of some of the public transport expenditure. Why should you provide feeder buses if you can work with Grab?
