The minister's statement was written in response to a query by BN's Datuk Koh Nai Kwong, who asked if the government has plans to compensate LRT and KL Monorail users in the event of service delays
Koh cited the **public transportation system in the United Kingdom and Japan**, where public transport users are entitled to refunds if they experience service delays. For example, commuters using the London Underground can claim refunds online if its trains are delayed for at least 15 minutes.
BN's Datuk Koh Nai Kwong asked the question during parliamentary proceedings.
