Usually I will push the trolley home. Then bring it back when I put my things in the fridge

nice to see someone point this out. furthermore, these msian vehicles can come in, as long as they pay the VEP fee. no limit on the number of msian vehicles coming in during peak hours right? pay vep fee means can come in already?
when COE is 11k its 20rm for the vep fee, now coe is 110k will vep increase to 200rm?

Plus gahmen give cdc vouchers is windfall money to them…. Surely all these retailers are making a lot of money and they still have the cheek to charge plastic bags ….
Eggmy force everyone above a certain revenue to charge but they charge n profiteer from it is very unbecoming

When the supermarkets started charging for plastic bags, they never deduct the cost of plastic bags when I bring my own bag. The cost of plastic bags had already factored in before this bring your bag nonsense.
All for d sake of joining d global movement in going green. N be a model country for it.

N tis initiative gave other bizs a chance at profiting from tis. When some clearly aren't a supermarket.

Making people pay for plastic bag is a BIG mistake, to begin with.

Politically and profit-wise correct but wrong in other ways.

The green cause is pure bullshat.
Besides plastic bags, the gov get people or organisations to plant trees, yet the other gov agencies are clearing the trees for land.

Increasing population means more waste generated. Yet they are importing non stop with a target of achieving 10mil.

Let's c in yrs later if d ozone layer will heal or artic ice caps will form again.

They count those non residents who're here temporary as d population also mah. Not imported for tis grp.

I noticed tis thing. For their population data will separate into non residents. Then for job or other data. Anyone who's in sg will be counted as a resident 😂
