Congested roads and lost productivity

The traffic situation in many roads in Singapore has become as bad as Jakarta or Kuala Lumpur. Read my views here.

  2. Human population increased to correct "stop at 2" so no choice but to open up the floodgate to let in more "FTs".

    Car population sudden increased surely must have a link to large influx of "FTs".

    If roads not congested how to justify $$ spent on ERP? Surely LTA wouldn't want its "brainchild" to be a "white elephant".

    With more cars on the roads, it's a "win-win" for everyone, besides generates more "income" such as parking fines, HDB season parking, COE and ERP, at the same time, can satisfy more people who aspire to be car owners/drivers.

  3. We need a wider and more efficient MRT and LRT system to reduce the reliance on cars. Also, we need a better taxi pricing system to attract drivers to switch to taxis. For example, those who prefer to hire based on an hourly basis should have a different price.
