The breakdown of the train has generated a lot of political attention with headlines alluding to "embarrassment at Malaysia's main international gateway" amongst other things.

Apparently when it first broke down in March 2023, people had to WALK the entire track: https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2...deo-goes-viral

For most people it's a major inconvenience. But for avgeeks, it's a wonderful story to regale your friends and families at dinner.

Apparently, new trains will only arrive come 2025.
