Disappointing Experience of KNIA


I had a 3D2N vacation to Kuala Lumpur with my sister.  It was our first experience to be in Medan train station. It wasn't that poor except for its outdated train which the government bought from Japan. I couldn't say much because Indonesian couldn't manufactured their own train. We are left behind far away from other countries.

We've made our reservation on the day before and got a  cheap ticket promotion (1-way IDR 60K). 37 minutes later, we've reached the very new airport in Indonesia - Kuala Namu International Airport. It's not a great building. There are too much lack about the building and how the society doesn't take the responsibility to maintain the building as well.

Flooring
It isn't a granite and doesn't look like one, it would be even better if they use a plain ceramic instead. The floor doesn't bring out the grand and looks cheap.

Restroom
There are many restrooms in clog status. New airport yet doesn't function like one.

Smoking free
There should have a strict rules and punishment to those who smoking inside the building. foremost, in an air-con building. Nowadays many countries had ban smoking in a public area. Why couldn't it be adopted by Indonesia as well? Don't get offended if you're a smoker. It's the fact that smoking isn't good for health. It's even more unfair to us whom didn't smoke; to become your victim. 

Highways
We've seen and heard much from nearby countries on how they plan and build their roads. But we never take the lesson of it. A DIRECT highways either from City to Airport or vice verse; should be built soon to decrease traffic in suburbs. Suburbs which has been known for its congested traffic even before the new airport been launch; why we were escorted to take the route again?

Is Indonesia developing forward or reverse? =____=
