Stop importing so many foreigners and demand will lessen. In fact foreigners who bid for COE should be made to pay 3x COE amount.

The escalating property and car prices are because of too many people chasing after far too few of these prized possessions. S'pore is not designed to house 6 million residents. Lower the population to 3.5 million with only 500K of genuine foreign talent, and we will see the prices of both homes and cars go spiralling down. It is ridiculous to have 650K CECAs in such a small country. The problem of runaway inflation is of the PAP's own making.

Lansai lah KNN this coe thing is a simple thing made complicated by the greedy pap and the tam jiak ter nao sinkies.

1. Pap has to be honest and acknowledged that the coe they implemented is for them to huats.
Or else
2. They could simply come out with a ballot system if the genuine intention is to limit cars on the small island.
3. Tam jiak ter nao sinkies has to use their ter nao to think, why should pap brings down the cost of ownership to suit their needs? They think for themselves without thinking about others? If pap were to do that, everyone also would want to own a car mah. Stupid.

Hence, jamus should just ask pap what is their fucking intention first before talking further.

Be clear minded. Pls hor

The Govt is not going to make private homes and cars affordable to even 20% of the population, so if these are important to you, then you have to find a way to make more money or move to another country where these prized assets are within reach.

A ballot system penalises S'poreans who have cracked the code on how to make money. It is against the spirit of meritocracy where the intelligent are rewarded by their hard work and ingenuity, though many merely inherit their parents' wealth.
