Subscribe for more Malaysia videos 🙏🇲🇾 I also tested the Kuala Lumpur Monorail ➡ kzread.info/dash/bejne/m3d4uMGvddO1pbw.htmlsi=5b0a9f8yWEM3sxIf

As a foreigner, there's no worry to use Kuala Lumpur Subway as there are instructions in English. If you need any help, just ask the locals and they are willing to offer their helping hands. Yeah, using this subway is convenient, fast and cheap. I always used it whenever l'm in KL. Thank you very much for sharing this useful vlog. Have a wonderful day, Ken.

No need to ask "do you speak English" as almost everybody speaks English in KL

​@@mohdarshadahmad2065 There are a lot of foreigners in KL. Most of them do not speak Good English

The metro line you ride in this video (LRT Kelana Jaya line) has a very short underground tunnel segment compared to other metro line, this is because the the porous limestone geographic structure beneath Kuala Lumpur making it very difficult and expensive for engineers to build underground tunnel inside KL city. If the construction team are not careful, the tunnels may collapse or sinkholes may appear in the middle of the city center during contruction. That's why the LRT line that were built in 1990s mostly comprised of above ground viaduct. Only the two MRT lines have longer underground tunnel segment due to the recent invention of a more modern tunnel boring machine by a German company.

Happy travelling within Kuala Lumpur using the subway, Ken. How convenient it is with clear instructions. 👍

This LRT formerly the longest track of unmanned Train in the World…..

Love your videos. No worries for me to travel in KL during the next-year visit, thanks!

Great tourist selfies, welcome!

Love your videos ❤❤❤

The Kelana Jaya line goes underground from Ampang Park to Masjid Jamek station. The rest of the stations are above ground.

Three lines of metro/rail in KL have the same vibe, LRT Kelana Jaya line (that Ken use in this video), MRT Kajang line and MRT Putrajaya line..all have underground part in the middle which through the KL city centre while at the end station of those line is more to upper ground-viaduct..

OMG, when you touch the token at the gate in the beginning, then i know there must be something happen when u touch out your token. haha

It's definitely an affordable subway system

For that particular line (Kelana Jaya line), most of it is above ground. It's underground when near the city centre. If you're gonna be here long term, maybe you can get a Touch'n'Go card instead. I can't verify this but it seems cheaper with a card than buying tokens. I once tried to buy a token to get rid of coins instead of using TnG card, and the fare was RM0.40 more expensive (i know i very cheapskate)

TnG fares are cheaper, so for long term is good idea.

Hello ken thanks you very much,because recomend to your friend..im watching your friend videos this mention your name,Stay healthy your both😊😊❤

_Long Time No See_

Underground only in the city centre because there is very limited space above ground. Tunneling is very expensive. Whether Light Rail Transit or Mass Rail Transit where it can be above ground, it is cheaper. Only the first "subway" the Ampang to Melati line is entirely above ground. All others have underground parts in the city centre. Even the London Underground is similar, outside of the city centre the line is above ground. If you do not go out of the station, you can travel above ground and see the neighbourhoods and the development along the route. It would help to have a local point out to you all the sights along the way. You could google and prepare the journey beforehand but a true local, born and bred could tell you stories that Google might not know to tell you. The Putra line travels to Subang Jaya and Puchong. The Kajang Line goes to Kajang, a town south of KL in the state of Selangor well know for its satay. Whether above or undergound, the LRT/MRT runs on double steel rails, not on a single concrete mono-rail. You should get a Rapid day pass or 3 day pass which will enable you to explore every stop with ease. The aerial views are totally different from the street level which you are familiar with. Happy travels.

Please go to the customer service counter and get information how the tickets works and how to find your way around, people walk around like zombies andcwhen they make mistakes they always blame the system.

Surprisingly no videos for subway in Bangkok and Manila for comparison as these two are Ken's most favourite SEA cities.

👍😋🇲🇾 selamat hari merdeka days 31 8 23

the lrt kelana jaya line have underground stations , they are masjid jamek,dang wangi,kampung baru,klcc and ampang park

If you are still in KL come and celebrate with us the Malaysia Independence Day to be held in Putrajaya on 31.8.23 (tomorrow morning from 7am-11am) Grab this opportunity as the subway to Putrajaya will operate as early as 4am tomorrow morning. If you are in KL do drop by to KLCC for the Merdeka countdown. Don’t worry the subway to KLCC will be operating until 2am tonite. Happy Holidays to you 😀👍🏼

you should try MRT 1 (MRT SBK Line) & MRT 2 (MRT PJY Line)

This system is not bad at all, but there should be a faster way for regular commuters. Like, loading money onto a card and moving around until the money's finished without having to be using the machines and getting single tickets all the time .

Thanks for the video. Do you know if i can buy the tokens with credit /debit card at the airport and at the station? Thanks in advance

Happy Independence DAY Stay cool 😎

The best❤

What hours do u take it?

You should try the Putrajaya line for an even deeper station

Your head almost touch the train's ceiling 😅 I wonder how someone who taller than 190cm gonna stand in the train? In Europe is the train ceiling higher? Because there are many tall peoples there

Any plans for Merdeka this Thursday?

No worries. Easy for me qnd of course...you.

You should try MRT Kajang Line and MRT Putrajaya Line.

The blasting AC is a must or the RapidKL will get tons of complain about AC not working. 😅

It is less expensive to build "above the ground" in some areas than use all underground. The money can be saved and used it to extend the train route, I guess 😀😀😀

75% of the system is elevated

the other side (Platform 1) more underground..underground line start at Pasar Seni to Masjid Jamek station..unfortunately you going the other way

As a foreigner living in KLCC, I use it daily, convenient, efficient, affordable and you can get to almost anywhere in Greater KL. Having said that, it is friggin’ cold inside and it is indeed very noisy. But hey, it beats getting stuck in road traffic. 😂

Thanks. I struggled on my trip to figure out which line, which color, to take. I took the train from Butterworth to KL Sentral, then was trying to figure out which line went to the airport. There were different counters for different lines and after a few tries, found out only the purple line goes there. It would help to not have to know which line you need in advance m in order to purchase a ticket.

Actually it is so easy once you are in KL Sentral when you want to go to KLIA. Just follow the color line which will take you straight to KLIA. You can take ERL or MRT to the airport. The latter is much cheaper.

Try the MRT

Try the MRT…..

Waw is good to show how easy 😅 thanks Ken for sharing this vlog 😂 have nice day 🌿

@@KenAbroadClips Use MRT from KL Sentral then you will see how deep is the underground station

Malaysia truly adopt a certain Malay proverb "Malu Bertanya Sesat Jalan - (Shy to Ask and You Get lost)". even as a local LRT and Monorail to go to station that I've never been it's sometime confusing. BUT in singapore its WAY BETTER organized and I can feel the difference even on my first time using MRT. Malaysia need to learn more form the neighbor down under.

Local and English language

Mrt is deeper..

Not really seamless even for the local..sometimes the sign can be confusing..my honest opinion

It is not your first time
