[BT] CHT "having a car-lite vision does not mean that our total car population cannot increase"

[topiari]

Don’t forget the trucks and lorries
They are not vehicles ?
Not rolling down the roads and expressways ?

 

[boredom2012]

Money more important lah. Care what about climate change or traffic jam

 

[RadioAddict]

CHT is one of this people when he starts to talk I auto tune off. I don’t think he knows what he is even talking about.

 

[RyanJ]

Maybe ERP 2 can make the metered driving so exorbitant you can still buy cars just not driving as much on the road at any time...

Or

He is leaving out PHV again.

[FireEmblem]

[BeBrave]

[BeBrave]

Since no need car lite can ban PMDs, PMAs, e bikes and bicycles?

Gov will say we need grab food n give our freelancing gig economy chance please...

 

[BeBrave]

I know what they will say..... They will ask u to leave home at 7am..... reach office early..... go exercise....... then start work at 9am...... avoid jam... avoid paying higher travelling fees.... and keep yourself healthy!!!!! Then Dr. Amy Koh will invite u to leave Singapore... if u not happy

They think those w small children don't need wait on kids n elderly before settling own timing to reach workplace

 

[Flexamoria]

Must give a clap to this man, can shoot 2 bird with 1 stone

 

[BMWguy]

I can tell u all.. prepare for this:

Implements distance based but COE remains high + additional $$$ paid for the dist-based

= lose-lose for sinkies..

 

[Cowbellc]

• The authorities will maintain the existing zero growth rate per annum for cars and motorcycles until January 2025

no wonder, the zero growth policy is until jan 2025

 

[Semakdd]

Twist until I dun understand

 

[dxdx999]

Mental gymnastics on a whole new level.

I am truly lost.

Car-lite doesn't mean car population cannot increase. So what does "lite" means? "Lite" during certain times of the day by distance based charging during peak hours if it is introduced?

Secondly, I quote
"Chee replied: “If indeed there is a change, whether it is due to removal of flexi-work arrangements or other reasons, then we will have to respond accordingly using this tool that we have, which is usage-based pricing and ERP 2.0 "

If u need to work, u need to work right?

If company stipulates 8am, 8.30 am etc... How would usage pricing change this?
Making it more expensive doesn't deter anything if you have to report by certain timing right?

It's precisely because start work timing by-and-large is 8am/8.30am/9am that's why there is this thing called "rush hour/peak period" right???

You're not detering anything, you're just making it more expensive to go to work isn't it?

You mean can tell boss "boss, sorry peak period charge extra $10, I go office later".

Are you hearing yourself?

Obviously gov cannot force companies to stagger work start timing or flexi work - you can only encourage.

Cannot solve the problem then at the very least don't add to it - to our cost of living.

CHT is next level genius

Common peasants cannot understand his words
