The government has been very cognisant of the public needs, in his stimulus package announcement Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin made is clear the latest package will cater for the rakyat, in Penjana he included a new unlimited travel pass on all public transport operated by GLC’s . Its aim was to make commuting cheaper and more affordable.
My30 Travel pass which temporarily replaces the My50 and My100 pass offers unlimited commuting on major public transport in the city, its regarded as a well thought comprehensive strategy to ease the burden of Malaysians. Everyone will be resuming work and RM1 a day travel pass is as cheap as free.
Commuters using the MRT, LRT, monorail, BRT and RAPID KL stage buses can now enjoy the My30 travel facility, that offers an unlimited travel pass of RM30 for 30 days, this will take effect beginning this Monday (June 15).
Prasarana Malaysia Bhd (Prasarana) group chief operating officer (Operations), Muhammad Nizam Alias in a statement today said that this exclusive package for Malaysians can be registered starting Monday at all 122 LRT, MRT, monorel, BRT stations and five bus hubs, at Pasar Seni; Seksyen 2, Shah Alam; Greenwood; Kajang Terminal and Sri Nilam using the MyKad and MyTentera.
“The My30 package temporarily replaces the unlimited My100 and My50 travel passes and is valid for six months starting June 15 until end of December. It is a brilliant initiative from the government in order to regenerate the country’s economy affected by the COVID-19 outbreak,” he said.
During these difficult times, such benefits should be fully utilised by the public to reduce their personal spending. It is expected unemployment in the country could rise to 5.5% by end of the year when more business get affected by the pandemic. Once the moratorium on car loans and housing ends, working adults will start to feel the heavy burden of repayment. Pay-cuts have already become an accepted norm, take back income will become far lesser in the foreseeable future for many, its advised that the public be careful with the expenses and hold off that new car purchase or reduce commuting to office in their own vehicle altogether.
Its time to be wise consumer, and with My30 you are now one up!
