Taxi in K.L.Malaysia

Kuala Lumpur traffic at 530pm. Many times, i took taxi from Pudu Bus terminal to Damansara (cost RM25) and to Ikea,the Curve (cost RM35). This time i have a good taxi driver who did not demand the extras. i reached Damansara in 20 mins. and the meter fare is RM9.60, i gave him RM12.00. There are many taxi drivers parked at the bus terminal,KLCC and in the Curve and other shopping centres, in K.L.waiting to make extras from the tourists like me. Lucky for me, i got friends to drive me around, after i reached there.
The music in the taxi is pleasant to the ears. Makes me want to shake my head, tap my hands, stamp my feet and hum along...
Go on, enjoy.
Oh,Did you hear the baby cry?.lol...this is funny, i like it.

Taxi drivers in Malaysia are fucking scum of the earth and rip off tourists like crazy! My advice to anyone visiting this beautiful country Malaysia, STAY AWAY FROM TAXI'S THAT DO NOT USE THE METER!

@perrypang : I know what you mean, I've seen them flick some dodgy switch before but It's OK, I've not taken a teksi in years and have a car now, so they can go screw themselves! :) I still cringe however when I see them pick up tourists from places like Times Sq. I also noticed a lot of teksis have a sticker on the side saying 'No Haggling", I wonder how many of them really don't?

I had 2 many bad experienced with the malaysia taxi mainly from JB &KL coz i travel a lot between the2 ,1 time in midvalley I was in the taxi Q when is my turn the driver open the window & ask where do I go N then I say 2 star hill N then the driver ask me for $20 N I said no N then the driver just ignore me N ask the passenger behind me N he took that passenger instead,,N guess what the rest of the taxi were all the same ! the thing is some people willing 2 pay that much money 2 the taxi though

@polarsequence sometime some taxi use the meter can be worse ,, coz some meter had done something to it and it can jump faster then u can imagine ,,,,,, my advice to u all out there save up some money to get your own car,,, at the end of the day if you take good care of your car it will last very long ......

some taxi drivers in malaysia are not only rip off the tourists also rip off the local aswell ! I hate our KL public transport so much ,buses are too slow ,,LRT don't travel to all places and taxi are too scary...I think the only way to solve this issue is to change our government ,,,the taxi drivers behave like is becoz they pay under table to some of the local officer and that's the reason why when u try to report them to the local officer noone will care ...

that is the one of big problem in my country!

taxi's driver in malaysia didn't use their meter even to CITIZEN like us!

Its hard not to get down after being taken time and time again. Best rule is to ask for the meter, if they say no - don't bargain, just close the door. The bad ones make you appreciate the good and all make me appreciate Singapore.
