Kad Konsesi KTM Untuk Pelajar/KTM Concession Card For Students

KTM CONCESSION CARD

I had post entry about how to make a RapidKL Student Card. In this entry, I will share with you guys about KTM Concession Card.

2016

Back in 2016, I preferred to take KTM as my transportation, whenever I heading to KL mostly, or Subang, or when I go to TBS. Near to the end of the year 2015, KTMB has restructured the fare price of the Komuter. The price of Commuter fares has risen, for example, now it is cost about RM4 to take a Commuter from Shah Alam to KL Sentral, which is roughly 90%~100% increases.

I really need to make the KTM Concession at that time, but the price was RM35 at first. OMG, What The Fish. First they increase the fare price, now I have to pay a lot for the discount card. Hello, RM35 is material for me OK!

Luckily, during January 2016, there was promotion made by the KTMB. They reduce the price of KTM Concession Card from RM35 to RM15 (it was a long time ago and I forgot already the price.)

With the help of my friends, I managed to make the card. They had to go to KL Sentral early in the morning to register for the card, as the officer limit the registration to only 100 registrars per day.

2017

Now, KTMB has introduce 2 type of concession cards for students. You may register any of this card online. That means, no more hassle to go to the KL Sentral, early in the morning, just to register for this card. KTMB try to make the registration become easier and more convenient. Let’s take a quick review on those cards.
