Traffic Jam in Kuala Lumpur for Aircrafts

Who says we only have traffic jam for cars in Kuala Lumpur?! Now in Kuala Lumpur International Airport, despite of good weather in our country, we do experience traffic jam for aircrafts to land and to take off. If you always experience traffic jam for an hour in highway or in town, same goes to the planes.
I experienced it myself, boarded an aircraft at 11.00am sharp and later being informed by the pilot that there was a congestion at the runway, 20 aircrafts are queuing to take off. Guess what? All aircrafts seems to be using the same runway to take off, despite of if the flight is from KLIA or LCCT. I saw MAS, Cathay, JetStar, AirAsia, Emirates and others all waiting at the queue. I really don't know if this is the norm in terms of how International Airports operates, but should there be a separate runway for a KLIA and LCCT? Just curious about it because only after 1 hour waited in the aircraft, it then come to our turn to take off. Lucky that my connecting flight has a gap of another 45 mins; but still it was very rush!

Again, I want to say we did it again...with consistent possibility of traffic jam without discriminating the mode of transportation you use. Seeing is believing!
