KSP:
[/quote]gov subsidise COE for the less well off ?? come on, we have a world class transportation system which can bring u to anywhere u want....[/quote]verykiasu2010:
[quote=\"KSP\"]why not charge more or 2X the COE price for those DINK families for having 2nd car....
it is not how much the rich can afford
it is how little the less well off could afford to cater to the family needs of transportation with young kids and a bigger brood encouraged by gov't, hence they should subsidise the COE or even give one free for such families who fulfills the gov't call for more kids
since the gov't is very good in giving out incentive and disincentive, this should be one for social engineering
excuse me while I :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :censored: -
yah why MRT getting even more crowded lately huh? realised that at morning peak it’s now at 3 min intervals instead of 2. sounds minor, but whoa it makes a huge difference in load factor!

damned good idea! - encourage car owners to procreate, and non car owners are discouraged from procreating?as I proposed before, gov't should give family with 3 or more kids a subsidised COE or free COE with more than 4 kids .... part of procreation incentive...sure to help in a car crazy society
KSP:

free or subsidised COE comes only after procreating 3 or more kids, else not free and no subsidy
not \"encourage car owners to procreate\", nor car-less people not to procreate as you put it -

if you want a subsidised COE or free COE, just show me your 3 or more kids .... plus must qualify hor, from same marriage, not from 3 diff wives

When you openly talk about an increase, being KS, you will be bidding even higher than the next expected amount! Who gains?
For the rich, they change cars all the time and they just pass on the high COE cost to the next car owner lor!
