Skycab, is it the Future Transport?

skycab I found a strange form car named Skycab. You'll see the picture. An strange form, like car, like train. Actually it is a bit of both. I found at frostfireseeds.com, thanks publisher.

Technically speaking it is a personal rapid transport system, a new hybrid form of transport that some have already taken to calling the podcar. Similar systems have been proposed before and failed to make it into development, despite some less-personal versions built in the 1970s in the US. But with the current desire for low-carbon transit as keen as ever, has the time finally arrived for this kind of low-emission people mover?

"SkyCab is a new "green" intelligent transportation system. SkyCab has no drivers (automatic) and no pollution. The SkyCab Project is working in a network with international relations together with several cities, R&D institutions and an industrial group. "

The aim of the SkyCab Project is to supplement buses, (local) trains and undergrounds with a convenient, non-polluting and cost effective new innovative form of public transport, a personalized rapid transit system.

A SkyCab vehicle runs on guide ways 4 to 5 meters above ground level in a comprehensive network and it can accommodate up to four passengers on each individual journey. The system operates day and night in any weather (even snow and ice). It has no timetable restrictions and transports the passengers to their selected station without intermediate stops.

About DCA Indonesia - Singapore: comments

hi RedBean, Im very sorry for my emotional comment on your blog. Im not aware if my comments is became a discussion. i find this link from google with keyword my name sumedi.


-----------------------------
yes. its not your country fault, if this unfair agrrement is dsigened and ratified, i have to accused my goverment.

singapore is an independence country, have their own sovereignity. have own deal. so are we. and this is a must if singapore defence their interest on this agreement.

so, my comments is right my comment, i think that, right. but, i apreciate with you.

im very sorry.
no problem with your blog.

-----------------------------
its the original post from redbean: Indonesian parlemen reject DCA.

meds has left a new comment on your post "Indonesian Parliament rejects DCA":

We must reject this unfair agreement.
singapore, house of corruptor, feed form bastad money. we reject. unfair DCA

sumedi, indonesian

I received this post in the thread posted some time in May, deep inside the file. Many of you may not have read this reply so I decided to post it here.

Hi Sumedi, welcome to the blog.

I can appreciate your point. From the Indonesian perspective, they must see real benefits to go along with the DCA. And if they can't, then they should object to it or speak against it. It is the right of every citizen to talk and express their views on issues concerning their country. Otherwise the country will be run without the consent of the people.

As citizens, I must say that we do not know the details of the agreements. I believe that the govt representatives of both sides are intelligent people who negotiated the agreements based on the best interests of their respective countries. And that your ministers would not have agreed on the DCA if Indonesia is not getting a fair and justified returns for the agreements.

I would not simply run down the agreement without knowing the details. You may want to find out more from your ministers. There must be enough trade off for them to agree. They must have seen enough benefits in the agreements which the public may not know.

Cheers
