[toddles]

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!

long time no visit ksp liao.

verykiasu2010:

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

damned good idea! - encourage car owners to procreate, and non car owners are discouraged from procreating?

KSP:

why not charge more or 2X the COE price for those DINK families for having 2nd car....

won't happen, coz policy makers themselves kana.

you got it wrong way round

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

no

don't care whether car buyer is car-less or car-ed people or not

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

sorry my england very bad that you always get me wrong

[CRAZYBANANA]

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!

CRAZYBANANA:

Do you agree that the issue of high CoE lies with the the car dealers biding the CoE on car buyers behalf?

Yes, to a large extent.
