To make this nice and sparkling clear: I am happy that Bangkok will have an airport rail link, since it will allow me to avoid taking taxis to/from the airport at least part of the time. Unfortunately said rail link does not affect my chances of blowing another taxi tire while being careened at ludicrous speed on an elevated expressway in, say, Jakarta.
