[FONT=&quot]Violent youth shot dead after drama-filled car chase[/FONT]

 

[sgtsk]

The Home Minister aka Deputy Prime Minister is a very hard man. When he became the Home Minister 2 years ago, he made a remark to the police force "Shoot to Kill". That statement showed the hardliner character he is. When 200 Sulu intruders came over to Sabah, none of them went back. Then at one time there was a spate of killings on underworld kingpins, most of the hired killers were hunted and shot on sight. We all wonder when and if Najib resign and he become PM, what will happen...I dare not think.

May be a Duterte

And he has admitted to the Indonesian Press he is a Javanese descendent, both parents are Indonesian.
If he become PM of Malaysia...

Extrajudicial KILLINGS are always supported by me with both hands and legs.
Some criminals that I encounter when I was a young chap lurking and idling my time away makes me realise there are people who will never change. Put $10 on the table and its gone when the chap appears or walk past. Its an addiction.

You can agree, you can disagree. I said this from my personal experience of observing chaps who have been in and out of prisons 20-40 times. No joke.

Finally. And don't be confused the rm20 road charge is not the VEP.

Even though Federal is broke, they shouldn't make such dumb method to collect quick revenue.
Average 10,000 SG cars daily, they may collect RM200,000 or RM6 million per month its seems
However, its truly a penny wise pound foolish decision.
Once the implementation starts, the 10,000 cars maybe be reduced significantly, shoppers will be reduced and the economy of JB will be adversely affected.
In turn, they will lose the GST collections from the SG shoppers and diners, shops will be doing slower businesses and some may even closed down.
Based on one dinner receipt for small family of say, RM200, GST @ RM12, plus other shopping...............so if this family decided not to come over to JB, they lose all the road toll and VEP plus the GST collection from their shopping and dining.

Only way to avoid paying is to ride a bike or drive a taxi.

RM20 per entry is still affordable for most Sinkies. Lately, the ¾ tank ruling is not so strictly imposed and I understand that many Sinkie drivers are taking this risk. I was told that even if caught, the fine is only S$50 and will be asked to go and fill up accordingly before going to JB.

 

[kengheng23]

that's mean we will have to pay double road charge(road charge and toll are the same)by using other name to collect monies.

The effect would be very minimal, the problem is, Singaporeans will continue to pay and go in, just look at ERP.

That is probably because it may still be the cheapest and easiest way to go "overseas".

Agree, I would gladly pay the S$6.66 to the Malaysian Govt..Get in and do the following:

One golf game, one Massage, and one fuck and the savings from doing the same three activities in SG
will be more than S$120.00 so its a no brainer...throw in other things like petrol, groceries and the savings
are even more... Here we pay more than that in daily ERP and get Fuck all.

hmm.... with more and more charges/increases on the horizon, i wonder how will this impact people's decision to shift to jb to live.. everytime in and out, $$ fly away..

It will now cost sgd 25.5 for a return trip to johor. Bad news for those travelling in and out everyday but almost no impact for retirees or the occasional visitor.

It should be around Sgd19 in total for private car.

Foreign private-registered vehicles entering Malaysia via Johor will be subjected to an RM20 (S$6.60) Road Charge ( RC ) from Nov 1, the Ministry of Transport (MOT) announced on Friday (Oct 28).
The ministry said the RC is not to be confused with the Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP).

So, folk, this new RM20 implementing from 01 Nov is not the VEP yet, its just a new Road Charge but why can't they just say additional road toll?
The VEP is still "coming soon" and then implement after they had complete the issuing the RFID tag costing RM10 for all the "foreign cars" entering MY.

Immediately LTA responded :
On Friday evening, Singapore's Ministry of Transport issued a statement to say that it has "noted" Malaysia's plans. "If it discriminates against Singapore-registered vehicles, we will match it in some form," said a spokesperson.

The new implementation is in obviously "discriminates against Singapore-registered vehicles", so expect announcement soon from LTA on new Road Charge for MY plates entering SG.
