Hi.. You guys should watch this video. Nowadays, everything that you do is getting paid. This is the new ruling by President Obama. Here's the video again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kno8mlfiRWY What do you guys think about this?

lol =D If i have a car, i dun mind dumping it in order to get paid for it.. Anyway, we are in the midst of recession now, and all the more we should save.. lol =D Furthermore, cars are bad for earth because of the pollution it cause.. SO by dumping it, i get paid as well as saving earth, so why not?? lol =D If only singapore had the same concept too, but i dun think it's possible, because most of the time, we will only get 'fined' for doing almost anything.. haha =D

Lol.. Yeah.. Ur definitely right about that. Singapore is a "fine" country. Actually, it's not the cars which is bad for the Earth. It's the smoke that's coming out from the cars. Nowadays, there's cars which run on gas, I can't quite recall what they name it. Lol..

Haha.. It's a youtube link, not an affiliate link. Is it me or some people getting paranoid? Anyway, I just happen to read back the post and can't believe it was so short.. I did that post in the middle of the night when I was bored but tired at the same time. Lol.. And that's what you get.

A similar thing is happening here in the UK. It is mainly for people who when buying a new car that is more eco friendly, they will get £2000 GBPounds allowed on their old car regardless of its state of repair. - Derek

Hi zahfran, we have something like that deal here were you can get a scrappage deal on an old car, it is a very good plan. What if we to sneak around the junkyard and liberate some old cars and then make some cash ???

Actually, I think it's a good plan cuz by doing that he's slowly building back the economy. Correct me if I'm wrong but most people that have old cars lying around would definitely trade it for cash and secondly, it's saving the environment. I'm not that into economy and political stuffs but this is just how I view it. :)
