Change was good, new rules were good, but still why is there
misuse ???
It’s hard to say that things will ever change, but if you’re going to
charge me 300% tax on a vehicle, please stop our ministers from
totally misusing their resource our taxes pay for!!!!
Still I see ministers family members moving around in full tinted
vehicles, and sometimes with an escort of a few other vehicles. The
only way you can identify is when they stop to get out and do whatever
it is. You can’t track who it is as they all go with those red number
plates with the same number, how convenient.
Some examples
1. A bunch of kids, probably still in school, at the super market come
to buy beer, loud as usual, get their things, get into a green Prado
with the red plates and drive away themselves.
2. At a super market a lady and a kid, two security vehicles outside,
and one Montero. Few security inside also. They buy milk, sugar, meat,
and who knows what, I’m sure they weren’t on their way to parliament!
3. Down south, at a beach party, bunch of kids driving a black Montero
with the red plates
4. A know person of mine, drives around in a Montero which is not his,
not his parents, not his brothers, but his uncles !!!
What is the meaning of this ? These are high value vehicles, being
misused to the maximum and we pay for it, what a damn Joke!!!
Range Rover – 47 Million
Land Cruiser 2010 model – 32 Million
Land Cruiser Prado – 18 Million
Montero – 15 Million
BMW X5 – 23 Million
Porsche Cayenne – 23 Million
Hummer – 37 Million
Figures might be off a few million, but WHO CARES!!! Right ??? This is
around what it costs us!
Next question will be, what happens to these once they change, leave,
or get reappointed ?
