in and out of Cyberjaya with public transport


Rarely, when the car breaks down, Ayah had no choice but to take public transport to office.

To Cyberjaya:

  1. Either take the Komuter , or bus to the Kuala Lumpur station, after KL Sentral. *Ayah accidentally bought the ticket to KL Sentral, thinking that Kuala Lumpur station is before KL Sentral (lama tak naik komuter dah), but the fare is actually the same, i.e. RM2.10. Plus, at the Kuala Lumpur station pun, nobody was there to check the ticket. The machine was faulty that day, the attendant left a big dustbin written “Buang Tiket Di Sini” (Throw The Ticket Here).
  2. When you alighted from the Komuter, find a signage that points you towards Pasar Seni. Walk towards Pasar Seni, across the bridge. *Be careful, if you use the wrong exit, you will take more time to walk around the big station to get to the other side. Years ago, there was no signage, Ayah and friends were walking around and around to find the correct exit haha.  
  3. Walk about 800m along the Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, (towards the Maybank building), all the way till you can see the big Mydin supermarket. You’ll see buses in front of Mydin. *The waiting place used to be beside the river, but after the renovation, they move it further away. No choice I guess, since there are lots of buses going by in the city center. 
  4. Don’t wait there, walk around to the other side of Mydin. *Lucky Ayah asked a bus driver instead of waiting there. Saved my time. RapidKL should do something about this, no proper signage indicating that there are still another bus stops BEHIND of Mydin. 
  5. Take E1 bus to Putrajaya Sentral. *The ride may take between 30min- 1 hour, depends on the traffic.  
  6. Take U429 to Cyberjaya.

*Or if you’re in a rush or wants to spend more money, you can always skip Step 2 to 5 by taking KLIA Transit to Putrajaya Sentral. Damage? RM9.50.
**Another alternative is, take LRT from KL Sentral towards Bandar Tasik Selatan and take KLIA Transit to Putrajaya Sentral. Damage? RM3 + 5.30 = RM8.30

From Cyberjaya:

  1. Take U429 to Putrajaya Sentral. RM1.90. *Or ask any kind soul from your office to drop you off, this may saves you up to 30 minutes of waiting time! 
  2. Take U43 to Bandar Utama, mention to the driver that you’ll stop at Western Digital.  
  3. When you notice that the bus is going over the huge famous LDP flyover, which KL-ites are fond of calling “Penang bridge”, press the button to alight. 
  4. After alighting, just walk along the road back towards the huge flyover. *Ayah noticed that now there are metal fences built on the road side. Excellent effort to protect the pedestrians from snatch thieves or the speeding cars! If you are at the right time, you will have hundreds of factories worker, mostly females, walking with you along the road after they finished their shifts. 
  5. Cross carefully the weird crooked intersection under the “Penang bridge”, and voila! The Setia Jaya Komuter station awaits you!
*Step 2 is much faster, than taking the E1 bus all the way towards KL.

If you are regular, there’s always DTS for you. The Dedicated Transportation System, designed especially for Cyberjaya. It costs around RM200-250 for monthly passes. There are weekly passes too. *Ayah did contemplate taking this before, but the pick-up points being Plaza Masalam or Summit USJ are quite inconvenience though (need to pay parking, oil to get there, jams, etc.) Sorry nature, I’m still driving to work :)=

adi dan anas

Adi – Payah nak makan. Hulur la apa, payah nak masuk.
Anas – Senang makan. Hulur je, semua masuk.

Adi – Senang makan ubat. Pernah sampai nangis sebab nak makan lagi.
Anas – Payah makan ubat. Selalu berperang bila nak paksa makan.

Adi – Suka pakai kopiah. Pantang nampak kopiah, nak pakai.
Anas – Payah nak lekat topi atas kepala. Panas kot sebab cepat berpeluh.

Adi – Senang senyum. Senyum simpul pulak tu. Memang cair nenek2 tengok.
Anas – Muka saya sangat serius dan macho. Senyum pun lepas kena agah lama2.

Adi – Pandai pilih baju. Nak pakai baju biasa hari- hari je. Baju melayu dan baju kemeja kena ugut.
Anas – Boleh je pakai baju apa2. Eh tapi maybe sebab tak pandai pilih lagi kot hahaha.

Adi – Suka berkepit dengan Opah. Dengan Atuk payah sikit (tapi lately dah ok dah)
Anas – Suka benor kat Atuk. Dari jauh lagi melambai.

Adi – Lasak tu lasak jugak, tapi hati sensitif, kaler pink, ada taman bunga.
Anas – Nampak gaya macam lasak banyak ni. Jangan besar esok- esok buli abang awak, udah le haha.

Hmm lagi apa eh. Ummi, kalau ada tertinggal lagi, sambung la ye.

Disclaimer: Hehe tak elok banding- bandingkan anak, macam drama Melayu adegan mak membebel kau-tengok-abang-kau-berjaya-ko-duduk-rumah-apa-buat, tapi sebab anak2 tak faham lagi, pastu bukan pandai bukak site ni pungg, so takpe kot hahaha…
