ABSTRACT
In Malaysia, numbers of motor vehicles have increased over the years. From 2009 to 2010, cars have recorded the highest increment at 608,840 units whereas motorcycles are second with 501,677 units, followed by taxis (5,512 units), buses (2,568 units) and other transport vehicles like aircraft and trains with 21,510 units (Ministry of Transport Malaysia, 2010). It can be implied from the statistics that cars and motorcycles are the preferred mode of transportation for domestic travel in Malaysia. This can also be interpreted that many Malaysians prefer to have the capability for direct point-to-point travel. In support of this notion, this paper aims to further examine direct point-topoint domestic travel in Malaysia.
