How do we prevent that or help to ease their increasing rent?]]> 2022-04-02 02:38:04 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126204518 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126204802 It is good that the PWM is covering more sectors. How do we look out for less-abled or people who do not want to improve as they tend to remain stagnant in the model? Can more be done to cater to the less abled in the PWM system?]]> 2022-04-02 02:38:33 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126204802 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126208649 With more charging ports closer to homes and the increasing cost of owning a car in Singapore, citizens voiced out that they are comfortable with sharing a car instead of owning their own car. 

Citizens are also pointed out that they are comfortable with the automated driving technology which are part of electrical vehicle. 

However, citizens are worried about the jobs of current drivers as they might have huge difficulty finding new jobs. ]]> 2022-04-02 02:45:04 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126208649 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126210149 Citizens voiced out that they do not mind installing solar panels within their own homes with 2 criteria. 

1. Installation of solar panel must be done through government grant. 

2. The power that the solar panel produced must benefit the citizens. ]]> 2022-04-02 02:48:06 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126210149 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126210458 Citizens pointed out that food waste should be used to produce energy as part of a recycling effort. ]]> 2022-04-02 02:48:42 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126210458 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126211059 Food waste recycling, a good idea to consider for residents, as done in toa payoh by some residents.

We can observe something similar happening in the Blockchain space now, where Blockchain MNCs have driven away from SG. Is there ways to delay the government from stepping in to regulate?]]> 2022-04-02 02:50:56 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126211585 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126214932 The government's point of view when it comes to the integration of cryptocurrencies and businesses in Singapore. (e.g Payment methods) Additionally, Singapore has one of the highest engagement in cryptocurrencies amongst youths.

Understandably, carbon taxation would have stifled the early economic growth of Singapore, and deferring it is a good model. But deferring it is not abolishing it. Having benefited from the carbon tax-free economic growth, it is time for such beneficiaries to pay their fair share. ]]> 2022-04-02 03:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126217112 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126217804 Greater support for sandwich classes could be given for those who don't just stay with children but also elderly staying together, as they face unique challenges that other families would not.  Furthermore, support based household unit may not be fair for such households. Support such as CDC voucher may not be that useful for such families as well - savings from utilities and conservancy may not create significant impact and such middle-income sandwich class residents may not feel the benefits]]> 2022-04-02 03:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126217804 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126218619 While the cash payouts are tiered from $700 to $1600, we can consider not providing such payouts for high income families, and more support for lower and middle income families. This is because lower and middle income families may benefit more significantly from the cash payout than high income families. ]]> 2022-04-02 03:05:26 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126218619 https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126223598 It is currently more advantageous to hold five million dollar properties over one 5 million dollar property, by a factor of 2-3. This encourages hoarding of law valued properties, exacerbating the housing crush the youth of today is facing. If the basis for property tax is AV, which is then based on rental income, why not tax it in the method, ie. aggregated taxation. ]]> 2022-04-02 03:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/matthiasho123/185coay7nn0uq62c/wish/2126223598
