          warm weather is slowly returning. clothes are dry today with the help of Mr Sun who is back from his short annual leave.

              the so-called ang bao GST package is our money. we pay road tax, COE, ERP...all these are from our pocket. it's just that during Budget Day, they rephrase it as helping singaporeans tide through. how nicely put.

                If the govt doesn't collect any revenue, how is the country to operate? At least when they \"return\" it to us, at least relatively more gets distributed to the less well off. And if we are paying road tax, COE and ERP, it means we are in the minority which owns a car, doesn't it?

                      Well put! Unfortunately many can't or don't see beyond just grousing. Forgetting that having good infrastructure, public housing, public health institutions, schools etc etc, all need to be funded somehow, heaven forbid, that they are not upto expectations! Too much of a sense of entitlement - just want & want, but don't care how it gets done!

                        If GST goes up by 3%, and a GST rebate of $200 is offered to offset this increase, that translates to the increase in GST for expenditure of $6667 (if my Maths is correct! not my strong suit). That's not too bad.
