It’s hard to cope without a car when you have kids

Letter from Barbara Tan

I REFER refer to the report “COEs the next lightning rod?” (April 8).

The huge jump in prices did not surprise me, because Singaporeans are basically very “kiasu” at heart, causing prices to escalate at the prospect of the supply of COEs falling.

Besides, time is a very precious commodity in Singapore, where we have been encouraged to work hard and be competitive.

Add to this the fact that couples are being encouraged to have more children, and it becomes clear why it is increasingly harder to cope without a car.

We cannot be asked to be competitive and while not aspiring to a more comfortable lifestyle — these go hand in hand.

As such, the Government needs to address the imbalance of car ownership and the artificial inflation of prices due to the COE quota system, in order to give a fair and fighting chance to every man on the street to improve his way of life.

Besides, I have seen people struggling with prams and babies in buses and on trains and I can vouch that it is no easy task.

Buses and trains can be horridly crowded, the passengers not particularly generous about giving up seats, and some bus drivers’road skills leave a lot to be desired. And it’s difficult enough trying to juggle one child, but what if you have two or three?

Cars a luxury? Not for us

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

How about a BALLOT to replace the BiD system?

Letter from Mark Ho

ARE cars really luxury items that many of us can do without?

I would argue cars are not a “luxury” when one needs to transport young children, elderly folk and bulky goods. One is not guaranteed a seat on public transport when you most need it, and they are poor alternatives when one has to transport big, heavy items.

Besides, the time saved on transport when one owns a car helps families bond

— just by virtue of allowing parents to get home faster to spend quality time with their children. Is family bonding time a luxury we should consider doing without?

If the intent of the COE system is to control the number of cars on the road, why do we need a COE bidding system, since it promotes unhealthy speculation? Just controlling the number of COEs (perhaps by ballot system) should suffice — without bringing money into the equation.

Andrew, you will make a bEttEr  MINISTER of TRANSPORT for SINGAPORE.

I think both of them is out of point leh.....

The facts first :

For Pte Car, in 2009, there are 576,988 units.

Of these units which is less than 4 years old is 67.2%.  If we screen off to less than 5years old, 83.4%.  So that, only 16.6% are 5years and older.

For the between 9 to less than 10 years only 1574 cars or 0.3%.

There are only two major road infrastructure project on going......CTE widening by 2014 and Marina Coastal Expressway (MCE).

With no much improvement to infrastructure and a relatively new car population.  High COE is going to last at least 4~5 years.  Unless there is a major recession during these times.

And there are simply too many cars on the road.....jam jam jam. Even if garment want to increase quota also cannot.  And it is all their fault lor,,,,why, they should have seen it coming leh....and reduce it long time ago.  The public simply cannot take abrupt spike in price....almost 100% COE increase in 1 month!!!  Dealers are losing money, car buyer is short changed.  Only those who buy CAT E is laughing all the way to the bank.  Should we say bye bye to CAT E ??

Next, those buying from PI, big time coming.  I would expect many to go bust.  So.....be gentle with your PI car(s).....

 

UNLESS !!!!   The public think 45K for a piece of paper is NO NO.....

TOKYO

Public debt is expected to hit 200 per cent of GDP in the next year as the government tries to spend its way out of the economic doldrums despite plummeting tax revenues and soaring welfare costs for its ageing population.

Based on FY2010’s nominal GDP of ¥475 trillion ($7 trillion), Japan’s debt is estimated to reach ¥950 trillion — or roughly ¥7.5 million per person.

Japan “can’t finance” its record trillion-dollar budget passed in March for the coming year as it tries to stimulate its fragile economy, said Mr Hideo Kumano, chief economist at Daiichi Life Research Institute.

“Japan’s revenue is roughly ¥37 trillion and debt is ¥44 trillion in FY2010,” he said. “Its debt to budget ratio is more than 50 per cent.”

Without issuing more government bonds, Japan “would go bankrupt by 2011”, he added.

Despite crawling out of a severe year-long recession last year, Japan’s recovery remains fragile with deflation, high public debt and weak domestic demand all concerns.

Japan was stuck in a deflationary spiral for years after its asset price bubble burst in the early 1990s. Its huge public debt is a legacy of massive stimulus spending during the economic “lost decade” of the 1990s, as well as a series of pump-priming packages to tackle the recession which began in 2008.

Standard and Poor’s in January warned that it might cut its rating on Japanese government bonds, which could raise Japan’s borrowing costs amid the faltering efforts of Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama’s government to curb debt.

The system of Japanese gove r nme n t b o n d s b e i n g bought by institutions such as the huge Japan Post Bank has been key in enabling Japan to remain buoyant since its stock market crash of 1990.

“Japan’s risk of default is low because it has a huge current account surplus, with the backing of private sector savings,” to continue purchasing bonds, said Mr Katsutoshi Inadome, bond strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Securities.

But while Japan’s risk of a Greek-style debt crisis is seen as much less likely, the event of risk becoming reality would be devastating, say analysts who question how long the government can continue its dependence on issuing public debt.

Yet others argue that there is no precedent for the ratio of debt to GDP nearing 200 per cent being dangerous. Nomura Securities economist Takehide Kiuchi cited Britain’s government debt in the post-war period “which reached 260 per cent but (the government) didn’t face a debt crisis”.

He added: “There is no answer to the question of what the critical level of debt is for a government to go bust.”

The likes of single-currency Greece and non-eurozone countries are also different in that the latter group have flexible currency exchange rates which are more closely calibrated to their fiscal conditions, he said.

Instead, the most realistic hazard brought by huge Japanese debt is prolonged deflation under a shrinking economy, said analysts. “Regaining fiscal health needs fiscal austerity, which could weigh on economic growth,” said Mr Kiuchi.  AFP

— Greece’s debt problems may currently be in the spotlight but Japan is walking its own financial tightrope, analysts said, with a public debt mountain bigger than that of any other industrialised nation.

Buy | 63.5 cents

DMG upgrades Anwell Technologies to Buy from Neutral, raises target price to $0.78 from $0.38 based on 8X FY11 price/ earnings ratio and a 50-per-cent discount to industry average.

DMG expects optical disc maker to incur FY10 loss due to high research and development and depreciation costs but tips strong turnaround in FY11, driven by sales of thin-film solar panels which Anwell started producing recently and forecasts FY11 net profit of HK$166.1 million ($30 million).
