As traffic congestion worsens across the Klang Valley and e-hailing fares surge to eye-watering levels during peak hours, mobility in Malaysia is no longer just about getting from point A to B. It is becoming a question of fairness, affordability, productivity, and long-term planning. With commuters losing hours on the road, costs rising, and public frustration mounting, the cracks in our transport ecosystem are becoming harder to ignore.

We speak to Wan Agyl Wan Hassan, CEO of MARA Liner and Founder of My Mobility Vision, to unpack what is really happening beneath the surface. From the economics of surge pricing and the public’s growing distrust of platform mobility, to the deeper structural issues shaping how Malaysians move, this conversation explores what a fair and functional mobility system should look like. We examine the role of public transport, the limits of infrastructure-first thinking, and the policy choices that could determine whether Malaysia builds a more equitable system or remains stuck in a cycle of congestion and cost.
