New trains for KTMB

Hearing of buying new trains from Transport Department as well as KTM Berhad,finally we could see the true face of the new trains.

New KTM train The new train is made by Hyundai Rotem  with Mitsubishi design and will be used on Kuala Lumpur-Ipoh route of ETS(Express Train Service) initially.The designed max. speed of this train is 160km/hour,however,it will only be running at 140km/hour maximum in the current route,spending 1 hour and 55 minutes for the single trip.

The new train is a new hope for a lot of people.At least we now know that KTM is doing something improving their services.I just wonder know when they want to increase more trains for existing commuter services and when the ETS will be extended to Penang/Singapore.

I think for all I mentioned,I still need to wait for longer time.

P1 expands to Ipoh and Kuala Terengganu

P1 Wimax expanded its coverage to Ipoh and Kuala Terengganu in last June.

P1 new coverageP1 has an objective to cover 90% population by the end of 2010.Thus,it now start to step into those small and medium size of cities in order to achieve that target.The latest news said that P1 may start to cover West Malaysia from next year too.

P1 provides a lot of packages to fit different users.However,I think the prices are still too high for me and the performance is not yet stable enough.

I think P1 still has a long way to go-while expanding the coverage,P1 must enhance the existing network to give more satisfactions to current users.

I hope P1 could do the things right!
