Sistem rangkaian pengangkutan awam di negara ini cuba disatukan tetapi usaha itu masih di peringkat awal untuk menilai kejayaannya.
Terangkan kemelut yang melanda sistem pengangkutan awam di negara ini.
Rangkaian pengangkutan awam di negara kita boleh dikategorikan sebagai pengangkutan bas, teksi, Sistem Transit Tren Ringan (LRT) dan monorel. Memang sudah ada banyak usaha yang dilakukan untuk menyatukan semua perkhidmatan ini tetapi kejayaannya masih jauh lagi. Oleh itu, pelbagai kemelut yang melanda sistem pengangkutan awam negara kita harus difahami untuk menangani masalah yang sudah berlanjutan agak lama ini.
Sudah pasti dilema utama yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat terhadap sistem pengangkutan awam kita ialah harganya yang mahal. Kadar tambang terutama teksi dan LRT dianggap oleh masyarakat sebagai agak mahal untuk mereka gunakan dengan kerap sistem pengangkutan itu. Kadaan ini menyebabkan jumlah pengguna pengangkutan awam terutama LRT agak kurang dan tidak menyeluruh seperti mereka hanya menggunakan pengangkutan awam hanya untuk ke pejabat sahaja. Jadi, kemelut utama ini harus diselesaikan oleh kerajaan jika mereka mahu melihat rakyat negara ini berduyun-duyun menggunakan LRT.
Selain itu, kemelut pengangkutan awam ini turut dikaitkan sistem pengangkutan awam yang tidak cekap. Masyarakat menganggap sistem pengangkutan awam terutama bas tidak boleh diharap terutama jadual perjalanannya yang menyebabkan masyarakat sukar untuk merancang dan menjangka tempoh perjalanan yang bakal mereka hadapi. Masalah penjagaan bas, LRT dan teksi turut dikatakan termasuk dalam kategori ini kerana penyelenggaraan yang tidak menyeluruh. Oleh itu, masyarakat bukan sahaja menyampah melihat kegagalan pengangkutan awam mematuhi jadualnya tetapi juga kegagalan mereka untuk menjaga tahap kualiti perkhidmatan pengangkutan awam mereka.
Kalau anda sering menggunakan pengangkutan awam sudah pasti anda akan menghadapi masalah untuk menukar sistem pengangkutan, contohnya antara monorel dengan LRT atau antara bas dengan monorel. Keadaan ini menyebabkan penjalanan penumpang terganggu kerana terpaksa beratur untuk membeli tiket sebelum menaiki pengangkutan awam yang lain pula. Dalam era globalisasi yang mengutamakan kepantasan, sudah pasti keadaan ini dianggap merumitkan kehidupan masyarakat. Maka, satu sistem tiket yang bersepadu harus dihasilkan oleh kerajaan dengan segera sebelum kemelut ini menjadi semakin rumit untuk diselesaikan.
Malah, pengangkutan awam turut terjejas akibat tindakan segelintir pekerja mereka seperti pemandu teksi dan pemandu bas yang tidak sopan ketika memandu. Sering kali masyarakat mengadu kerakusan pemandu pengangkutan awam di jalan raya yang dibuktikan oleh meningkatkan kemalangan yang melibatkan pengangkutan awam ini. Sikap tidak prihatin mereka ini telah memberi satu imej negatif kepada semua pekerja yang bekerja dalam sistem pengangkutan awam negara. Sesungguhnya, semua pekerja pengangkutan awam harus diberi satu kursus untuk memastikan mereka lebih mesra pelanggan dan bukannya dibenci oleh pelanggan.
Kesimpulannya, masalah pengangkutan awam ini memang banyak dan sudah lama serta masih gagal diselesaikan. Situasi ini berlaku kerana kurangnya kesungguhan pihak kerajaan untuk mengambil langkah awal dalam menanganinya. Ketika masyarakat semakin gusar dengan mutu perkhidmatan pengangkutan awam, kerajaan pula terus berdiam diri dan hanya bertindak apabila isu itu menjadi tatapan masyarakat dalam media massa negara. Mungkin sudah sampai masanya kerajaan bertindak tegas dalam kemelut ini.
Negara kita mempunyai pelbagai kaum yang memiliki hari perayaan tersendiri. Pada majlis perayaan ini, semua kaum akan merayakannya bersama-sama.
Pada pendapat anda, apakah kebaikan-kebaikan perayaan ini disambut bersama-samaNegara kita dikenali sebagai syurga perayaan kerana mempunyai banyak perayaan yang disambut oleh masyarakatnya yang berbilang kaum. Kita mempunyai Tahun Batu Cina, Hari Raya, Krismas, Deepavali dann banyak lagi perayaan yang disambut oleh penduduk negara ini. Perayaan ini telah memberi satu dimensi baru kepada masyarakat kita dan luar tentang erti perayaan sebenar. Kepelbagaian perayaan di negara ini turut membuka banyak kebaikan kepada negara dan masyarakat yang mendiami negara tercinta ini.
Kesan yang paling ketara ialah perayaan ini telah meningkatkan hubungan dan interaksi antara penduduk yang berbilang kaum ini. Semua pihak memahami dan terlibat dalam perayaan yang disambut oleh kaum lain. Lawatan ke rumah terbukaa yang diamalkan telah mengeratkan hubungan antara kaum. Jadi, kekerapan interaksi ini menyebabkan wujudnya perpaduan yang utuh di negara ini yang menjadi sanjungan masyarakat luar.
Selain itu, golongan remaja mampu memahami erti perpaduan kepada negara ini. Mereka yang tidak mengalami kesusahan ketika era awal kemerdekaan mungkin memandang enteng perpaduan. Namun, apabila mereka melihat suasana perayaan barulah mereka memahami dan menyanjungi erti perpaduan. Keadaan ini menyebabkan remaja yang dilahirkan merupakan remaja berwawasan dan terbilang. Semuanya gara-gara wujudnya perayaan yang pelbagai di negara ini. Cuba bayangkan tiadanya sambutan perayaan di negara ini?
Pandangan masyarakat terutama orang luar turut berubah. Negara akan dilihat sebagai mempunyai keunikan perayaan yang tidak mampu dilihat di negara lain. Kepelbagaian perayaan ini memberi satu bentuk unik dalam pandangan orang asing terhadap negara ini. Lantaran itu kehadiran pelancong asing turut bertambah kerana mereka ingin dan berpeluang melihat pelbagai perayaan dalam sebuah negara daripada pergi ke beberapa negara untuk melihat pelbagai perayaan. Malaysia satu negara tetapi banyak perayaan.
Malahan, kepelbagaian perayaan ini menyebabkan ekonomi negara terus berkembang. Keadaan ini wujud kerana pelbagai pesta pembelian akan dijalankan untuk setiap perayaan yang disambut oleh masyarakat di sini. Kekerapan masyarakat negara untuk berbelanja setiap kali perayaan amatlah tinggi dan memberi ruang kepada ahli perniagaan untuk mengaut keuntungan. Sudah pasti situasi ini menjana pertumbuhan ekonomi negara.
Kesimpulannya, perayaan yang ada di negara kita bukanlah sesuatu kekangan tetapi satu rahmat yang harus digunakan dengan sebaik mungkin. Kita harus menjadikan perayaan itu sebagai cubaan untuk merapatkan hubungan dan mengurangkan perbezaan antara kaum. Kalau itu mampu diccapai sudah pasti kemakmuran negara akan berkekalan. Sememangnya Malaysia sebuah negara yang melambang erti benua Asia kerana mempunyai pelbagai keturunan dan perayaan.
