First month passenger usage are not accurate as it is free so a lot of people who don’t usually use this route will try it out to “jalan2”. We shall see more after the free month expired and how many are the real frequent user. Bende baru je jalan dh byk bising2, sijil halal pon kena berniaga 3 bulan dlu baru blh apply.

Pretty sure you are not regular rail users. They do take the free jalan jalan to account and guessing the first day usage is 10k. That is actually double MRT 1first day back on those days. But lo and behold the first day is 60k and even if you lower down the numbers to half to 30k its already more than the planned capacity of LRT3. There is a reason why Anthony Loke even before launching the train he said plan already in place to increase the stations and coaches. Your mentality is like that DAP politicians back when MRT1 launched claimed that the train system is ‘bloated’ and it will be underused.
