Thumbs down ATIS Reception from KLIA

I find it very disturbing when pilots are still requesting Rwy in use from SIN ATCers even though they are aprox 150-200nm EAST of VKL. This morning the SIN ATCer told me that he has to answer frequent requests by pilots coming in from the EAST requesting for the RWY and STAR in use for KLIA. Why should this be so.If pilots can pick up the SZB ATIS clearly at these distances, KLIA transmissions should be better as they have all the best equipment. If u are one experiencing such a problem, kindly let us know. Definitely something must be wrong somewhere. May I have some inputs pls. KAL n FDX were two examples this morning(2200 utc). Is this problem only experienced from those inbound from the EAST or is it all over?:
