Can anybody tell me why the Klang Valley taxis are given lower priority than the LCCT taxis to pick up passenger at Low Cost Carrier Terminal?

I just don't understand, why the government is allowing this to happen? The KLIA limo taxis are not operating the transport service so efficiently, and yet it is still not allowing city cabs to operate at KLIA airport. Still remember that last year in December, it came out in the Chinese Newspaper - Sinchew Daily, saying that KLIA will be allowing low cost taxis to operate starting from March this year(I have blogged it), but what happen now? No sound no picture!

After so many years of operation, the KLIA and Malaysia Airport still didn't learn. With the city cabs operating in the airport, the transportation of people to KL could be much more efficient. Look at how Singapore Changi Airport handles these. Passengers who arrive at the airport have a choice of luxury taxi or just simply the city meterred cab. The city taxis drive thru. the arrival hall, one after another and park at the side systematically. A coordinator will show the waiting passengers which cab to take, in a first in first out basis. At certain time, the queue could be quite long. But the passengers just need not to worry because of the efficiency, and the queue could be easily cleared in less than half an hour, amazingly!
