Horrible Experience

So many times I've been travelling for business trip or leisure, but last week was my first time arriving KLIA from overseas. Kalau LCCT KLIA adalah 2, 3 kali. Selalu via Changi sebab aku dok kat JB previously. First time jetted off from KLIA when I was accompanying my wife to London en route to Manchester in 2006, but flying back was landed at Changi. So, complaint.. Once landed, cam biasa lah, dek kerana panas buntut dok long haul in cramped economy class, cepat2 nak blah out of aircraft fuselage. Within less than 15 minutes I was cleared from immigration, thanks to fast immigration kiosk.. good innovation from immigration department.. Waiting at luggage arrival belt.. After 15 minutes, then first luggage came.. waiting.. owh.. then the misery came.. the speed of the conveyor was damnn slow, more than 10 times it was suddenly stop for what ever reason. Then have to be interfered with ground staff. All the foreigners besides me dah merungut sighh sighh, shit, damn.. and all sort of kurang enak didengar words.. As Malaysian yang patriotic, bengang jugak kan.. As it means to Malaysian jugak.. All in all, aku tunggu lebih kurang 1 hour 33 minutes just to get my little luggage out.. Plus 15 minutes, Almost 2 hours just to cleared myself out of airport building after landed.. This is totally different from my experience in Changi, Taiwan, Narita, Pudong etc etc... In changi, it was cleared by less than 30 minutes including immigration clearance. Even tho fully loaded long haul flight.. So, I guess, MAB have to do something... Satellite terminal for arrival jauh giler dari main terminal.. and thts causing a havoc for luggage handling I guess especially for fully loaded flight.. anyway, pada aku tak kisah pun, but for most foreigners, this is something embarassing and mae them fed up.. particularly for those in hurry.. That's why they preferred via Changi rather than KLIA...
