QUOTE(kai_rel @ Jan 7 2010, 05:22 PM) 800+ ringgit yearly for 2500cc is not cheap. make it RM100 & i'll be happy. insurance? for me the sum is bearable. maybe going OT but change the insurance to follow the UK system. insurance is on the individual or driver not the vehicle. Pasal la if you want to drive 2500cc... why cannot drive 1500 or 1600? If you want to drive 2500cc sangat, cough up the dough. I drive 1600 and pay RM 75 for my road tax. Happy as a clam. As long as my Waja 1600cc pays RM1.80 and the next person to me driving big vroom vroom pays RM2++, I don't care.

QUOTE(rcracer @ Jan 7 2010, 05:29 PM) Engine CC in malaysia is also tied into the type of car the bigger the CC, the more expensive the more luxurious, so it's correct to tax big CC car Actually, they should also add premium tax for gas guzzling SUVs. Tak pasal pasal drive one on the road for what? Wasting the world's resources for no reason.

QUOTE(kai_rel @ Jan 7 2010, 05:38 PM) yes, i cough up the doe to drive a 2500cc vehicle in paying the monthly installment, roadtax & insurance. i dont mind the subsidy @ paying RM1.80 for those who deserve it. hey who dont want subsidy right. the government states that larger engine capacity have to pay more roadtax because the petrol is subsidized. if the government want to reduce or abolish the subsidy then a common roadtax should be applied to all vehicle regardless or CC then it will be fair. well thats just my opnion. *if* they abolish the subsidy for petrol, then I agree with you that there should be a common road tax, but then again, abolishing subsidies from petrol is like lining up everyone that is poor to medium and putting a bullet in their head, two bullets for the poor. So abolishing subsidies is not possible, but we can tax more for people who owns large CCs or a lot of cars.

QUOTE(! Love Money @ Jan 7 2010, 06:10 PM) the double rail track from penang to ipoh managed by MMC-Gamuda JV? news said they will need to increase the budget and delay completion date... klang railway transit? until now the project have not tendered out yet... news said tender will be 2half of this year but the project have been spoken for 1 year oledi and thats y the government is spending more that required, this is budget deficit due to poor financial management... budget deficit occur than the last choice is to rake as much as possible from the rakyat... lastly rakyat suffer... ok la.. fine. Don't use LRT for example. Say education. Primary school, almost free, secondary school, almost free. You go to USA and see if it's free... Healthcare? Malaysian healthcare much better than USA. I rather use those money we benefit to these areas than giving a Civic ah Beng or a BMW Ah Pek.
