I feel due to Grab , PHV , rental car companies rah.

you see on the road. So many PHV as years gone by.

how many PHV literally is using their own car? The percentage obviously JUST a bit.

Major PHV are Renting it.

Next , some on surface apply as PHV main agenda is wanna Drive a car.

A lot just drive as " Part time " as PHV.

LTA got no excuses la, last time, comfort taxi bid COE so high until they removed taxi from bidding COE.

they should have expected PHV will behave like comfort and bid high high for COE

LTA have all the data, they just refused to use their brain

our current income without COE can already pay 1000 times current govt salaries

The review will take months if not years and then a recession will justify that the system still works and we monitor it another cycle. By then LHL and gang would have retired and left the problem to the next administration.

The title of this thread is out of order!

foreigners came here to hike up our property prices up to the moon. no choice hdb flats have to follow now to over $1m, now we are seeing high end cars with every increasing coe. easy money for the govt no reason they want to remove the coe bidding. who are the ones that bid so high? the family of 4 no longer can have any decent living in spore. 4G leaders just run out of ideas. it is that marbok(drunk) tan that started it. make a statue next to merlion for us to throw rotten eggs at him! Here it is a giant bubble in everything. Govt must be sacked!

I am fine, if they tweak so that the rich with less than 3 household  pays 10% more for COE.

actually some suggest is " Car owners who going to own 2nd car or 3rd so on , have to pay additional taxes. "
