KTM Komuter

I have an interesting story to share. I was on emergency leave to attend some personal matters yesterday. For a change, I decided to take the Komuter. My journey was from Segambut to Serdang station..... It was peak hour at 6:52am in the morning. By the time the Komuter arrive at the Segambut station, it was already packed of people to the brim.........What choice I got if I do not want to miss the appointment......So I inched my way into the front coach. It was worst than sardines in a can. Now I can visualised the daily sufferings of the people, the office workers, the labourers, students, old and young and the list goes on and on............You must in there to experience what the actual situation... I must really thank god for what I have today, really appreciates all the basic things of life. Mind you, luckily it was early in the morning and the surrounding smell was still fresh and nice, with all the perfumes and what not. In the komuter there no more room, you dont even get a chance to pickup a thing if you happens to drop it on the floor. There is no chance you'll not touch the next person to you as the train starts to move forward. You know I can see and feel that the majority of the passengers are true experienced daily commuters. Guess how I know from the way the follow the rythm of tha sway........ Each time when the train starts to move forward, all of them would lean backwards and as the Komuter slows down to the next stop all the passengers would lean backwards again, amazing really. From the way I see that each and everyone seems to hold tight to their handbags and bags, there must be pickpockets loitering around. Well, through these once experience, I would sincerely suggest to the government and the Transport Minister in particular to look into the agony and sufferings the people have been facing daily. The moral of the story is that we should be not only thankful of what we have, but appreciate the little things in live life to the max....
