With the MRT not having a car is not bad. Paying 100K SGD for a Certificate of Entitlement (10 year car registration) is definitely a rich person move. Good point on the underclass and labor conditions.

Btw, that price for the Certificate of Entitlement is set by auction. The government only sets the total volume of CoE.
