Rapid KL
RapidKL, short for Rangkaian Pengangkutan Integrasi Deras Sdn Bhd, is a government-owned company which was formed in 2004 as part of the restructuring of the public transport system in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's capital.
RapidKL is the operator of Kuala Lumpur's two light rail transit (LRT) lines, the largest stage bus (regular or trunk bus route) and feeder bus service in Kuala Lumpur, and, as of November 2007, the single line of the KL Monorail and parts of the KLIA Transit route.
All assets of the rail and bus services are owned by another government-owned company, Syarikat Prasarana Negara Berhad (SPNB), which was also formed under the restructuring process.
Rapid Penang, which was set up as a subsidiary of RapidKL, began running bus services in Penang on 31 July 2007 as part of the Malaysian Federal government's move to revamp bus services in Penang.

Famous quotes containing the word rapid:
“It now appears that the negro race is, more than any other, susceptible of rapid civilization. The emancipation is observed, in the islands, to have wrought for the negro a benefit as sudden as when a thermometer is brought out of the shade into the sun. It has given him eyes and ears.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
