the cost for "permission to use a car for 10 years" is still f**king insane
The COE can get you a nice Mercs or Porsche in some countries.
Wat to do ?
even in Hong Kong.... you can get a brand new Mercedes Benz E class at the current Cat B COE premium price.

Th MIW must have an expert in double speak.
Foreign Talent for migrant workers.
Purchasing approval to buy and use a new car for 10 years, is called Entitlement.
is there really that many people buying new cars? or some party/company playing with the bidding system?

For motorcycles, its the dealers who set the fix the COE premiums. They want to sell their super bikes. 2K is a small cost for these bikes.
For the new entrant with 2B motorcycle licence, thats almost 50% of the bike price.
For cars, it may be the kia su rich man who drives the price up. He can bid as high as he want, but pay the bottom bid price. So he moves the band up.
Remember, the number to beat is still 86K.
COE for motorcycles almost 2k.
Want to buy bike also so stressful.
Open Cat spoilt market
