RM50 KTM Komuter pass expected by Jan 1
PUTRAJAYA: The RM50 monthly MyKommuter50 pass for KTM Komuter services is expected to be available from Dec 1, or by Jan 1 next year at the latest.
The Malaysian government is set to launch a new RM50 monthly MyKommuter50 pass for KTM Komuter services, with availability expected by December 1 or by January 1 at the latest. Transport Minister Anthony Loke revealed the news during a press conference, stating that the pass will only be available to Malaysian citizens. To register for the pass, applicants need only their MyKad, similar to the process for Prasarana's My50 pass.
The Ministry aims to introduce the pass after the Budget is approved by Parliament at the end of November. KTMB is currently fine-tuning the implementation, including the ticketing system, to make the process more convenient for passengers. Loke highlighted that making the ticketing system digital would be ideal, but it would take some time to achieve.
The government plans to improve KTM Komuter services, such as adding 12 new train sets in the northern sector starting February next year and gradually increasing train frequency in the Klang Valley.
