AS a senior citizen, I travel largely by express bus as I find it convenient and cost-effective. My frequent destinations are Melaka and Kuala Lumpur’s Terminal Bersepadu Selatan (TBS) from Johor Baru (Larkin Sentral).
From all the terminals, every passenger is required to pay more than the price printed on the bus ticket. From Johor Baru to Melaka, the printed fare is RM16 (senior citizen), but one is asked to pay 40 sen extra for the Larkin passenger insurance protection (LPIP) fee, which is mandatory.
