Malayan Railways (#KTMB) is providing additional #trains in conjunction with 2023 State Elections (#PRN) and School Holidays.
Two additional Electric Train Service (#ETS) are provided from 11 August to 13 August for the #StateElections (which will take place on 12 August in the states of Selangor, Kelantan, Terengganu, Negeri Sembilan, Kedah and Penang) and from 25 August to 3 September for #SchoolHolidays.
The addition of the trains are due to the expected significant increase in the volume of people who will use it to return to #hometown to vote for their #states, particularly those from #Kedah and #Penang.
This is because a lot of people from those states living in Klang Valley are unable to change their #voting#address, because the place they're living at is not a #permanent place, while voting address in Malaysia must always match permanent address as written on #identification card.
I have an overwhelming urge to get myself an ebike over a new GPU next year. There is a local company here that assembles and sells them in #Kedah. I have tested out the models, and they are excellent.
