TITS for TAT

TITS for TAT Nope. This posting has nothing to do with TITS. Please scroll down and read my other postings which contains TITS. In the meantime, let's look at how the two governments escalate matters to the detriment of people in the name of RIGHTEOUSNESS. Henceforth, we have the first SALVO, Singapore decides to raise foreign cars entry into Singapore by $15 up from $20 per entry. Why? To equalize the increase in COE's of the car prices in Singapore. What? So damn cheap? Just to raise to $35 a day? For people coming in from Johor Bahru that amounts to $35 x 6 days a week and 52 weeks and for the next 10 years = $109,200. That is a bloody highway robbery for a person needing to work in Singapore and have no choice but to use the car to travel. But the Singapore government states that you can always come from 7pm and leave by 12am. (Or whatever the new time it be) but who works at those stupid hours so that reasons are hogwash for those living in their ivory towers. Ah! But there is buses and public transport. Really? Have these jokers been on public transport crossing the damn border? To the hearts content, each government Malaysia and Singapore practice absurd controls that causes 5 kilometer long traffic jams and the officers states that it is none of their business to deal with traffic jams. So to deaf ears they fall. Then the Malaysian government now wants to impose RM per entry and per exit through the causeway for Singapore cars entering Malaysia. Well, it is justified because Singapore cars using Malaysian roads don't pat road tax so it is now equitable to get them to pay a higher road tax with the excuse to pay for maintenance cost for Eastern Dispersal Link. But the bloody problem is they charge on ALL CARS, buses and lorries, including the Malaysian vehicles. Cars will have to pay a total of RM16.50 for a day trip to Singapore and back to Johor. Buses will be charged RM13.30, and taxis RM8.30 for a two-way trip. This makes the people living in Johor but working in Singapore tremendous hardships. But who cares, right? It is RIGHTEOUSNESS that matters and the principle of equality that is of importance. Now Singapore needs to play one upmanship as it cannot be left behind at the mercy of the Malaysian government thus it will need to equally impose the same equivalent toll charges on Singapore side to justify it is right. Of course, for that matter, Malaysia must also show its soverignity by matching Singapore's raised till charges. Hey! It looks like a bloody poker game and it is the poor man on the streets that has to foot the one upmanship game! When two elephants fight, the grass gets trampled. And guess what the poor people have to do? WALK UNDER THE HOT SUN AND IN RAIN FOR 2 KILOMETERS WITHOUT A PROPER PEDESTRIAN PATHWAY!!!! So much for these two governments intelligence! Do you know what the next consequences will be? The Malaysians working in Singapore WILL rent apartments and condos in Singapore and increase the density of the much beloved "break down" public transport system causing more human traffic jams than before. That would be another 1,000,000 added population entering and residing in Singapore from Malaysia. Betcha this far sighted Singapore authorities didn't plan on this outcome, yeah? And the business in Malaysia? It is going south all the way down with reduced demand.  Fun and Pleasure in Sunny Side Singapore. Come visit my blog and let's chat and explore. |
