Dear all the readers and public transport user, don't forget to bring an umbrella before you leaving the house. Nowdays, we can't predict the weather either its raining or storming or sunny. So, please don't forget  to bring your umbrella and you also can check the weather through your smartphone. 

One of the smartphones application to check weather

Have a nice day.

Where is everyone?????!!!!

As usual around 6.45am, I have already arrived at Padang Jawa Komuter Station. I'm a Komuter regular customer. I use it as my transportation to go work. Komuter is a part of public transport mode in Malaysia. It has two routes, Seremban- Rawang Route and  Pelabuhan Klang - Batu Caves Route.  Since, I stay in Desa Alam,  I take Komuter from Padang Jawa Station because it is the nearest one to my place. I drive there and park the car at the station. You need to pay RM3 per day per entry for parking.

So, around 6.53am, my journey with Komuter begin. Normally, if you take Komuter around this time you need to stand up till KL Sentral Station because there is no available seat. Unfortunately, today I found that there are a lot of available seats. I start thinking, where are everyone else???? Is today a holiday???. From Padang Jawa till KL Sentral just 2 or 3 passengers are standing. (could not provide a picture because my battery phone die)

when I arrive at my office at Wisma Monorail, i ask my colleagues if they are also have a same thinking as me. One of them also talk the same thing as i'm. So....Where is everyone????? I check KTM Komuter tweets, but nothing unusual reported. Lets see what happens tomorrow.
