I went to California in June to attend my son's college graduation and therefore missed PJ's City Day. But, I did learn about one set of criterion that makes good cities: a very good public transportation system.

On the way to San Francisco, I took occasion to visit an American Seminary in Los Angeles to explore the courses and research opportunities they offered for post-doctoral work. This article will explore my hands-on experience of the what and why of the good public transportation

I experienced in the Los Angeles area and then reflect a little on what it will take for the capitals of Malaysia to offer similar and equally good public transportation. A developed country or a modern city must have first world quality of public transportation systems.

Having arrived at the LA Airport about 7.00pm, I did not want to take too much time to get to my living quarters. Neither, did I want to be forced into the only option of taking a cab or limousine to the Pasadena area which is at least a 30 minutes drive away from the airport, along the Highway 210.

I therefore had basically two other options: the train system or the Shuttle Van system.
