The death of the car industry

[Wh1stl3r2]

Good read from Tito Hermoso. I hope someone from DoF will take notice.

I just want to add, there will also be a similarly catastrophic domino effect on related industries like the service (maintenance) and aftermarket industry. Think gas stations, carwashes, suspension shops, paint shops, dub & tire shops, tint, audio & video, etc.

And the net additional tax collection from the proposed measures, in its current form will also be negative. Which defeats the purpose of this proposed increase in excise tax. Tito's proposed alternatives look much better.

Mobility is the name of the game. Even if you have a reliable multiple transport system, you would still need cars. Or you go back to the calendar system or the carabao drawn cart

Mas ok kung sa mga kotse lang sila mag tataas ng tax. Pero sana mag baba sila ng tax sa mga truck at utility vehicles. Mag baba din sila sa spare parts ng mga trucks and untility vehicles dahil nakaka tulong ito sa economy.

Luxury cars at mga SUVs ok lang taasan ng tax pero sana ang mga micro cars maintain nila dahil ito ang normal cars ng middle and lower class.

Ako alam nyo naman lover of environment. Kung tax pag uusapan ang dapat heavily tax eh yung the most destructive sa nature. Its the diesel engine. Why?

- Few years lang itim na usok

- Tunog lata kaya noise pollution. Payabang-yabang pa crdi eh kalembang pa din.

- Meron mga bahay na ewan ko bakit gagawa ng garahe sobra sikip tapos pag pinaandar sa umaga diesel papainitin pa eh torture lungs nyo.

Agree ako doon sa article walang tax sa prius/leaf/segway mga electric/hybrid car. Tapos sa gasoline ang least tax dapat.

Ang mga barubal usually magmaintain ng sasakayan yung meron fleet ng mitsubishi FB, delivery, cargo trucks, bus. Kaya dapat bigyan ng leksyon mga one year impound and taasan penalty mga hundred thousand to millions. Tinitipid langis, pati gulong kalbo na sige byahe, overloading pa tapos hindi check regular brake fluid so resulta disgraysa sa kalsada = lost of human life. Pag walang kaya namatay or nainjured eh areglo lang ng third part liability sa insurance or magyayabang sasagutin na lang daw palibing. Ganun ka cheap ang buhay dahil sa pagiging irresponsible.

the reason why diesel is a robust fuel is because diesel engines are thermally efficient.

there are a number of measures to reduce exhaust particulates by introducing newer catalytic converters, or introducing reducing agents(such as ammonia) into the exhaust mix to render the exhaust harmless.

heavily taxing CRDI engines is just plain silly. why the hell would you dis-incentivize technology that makes an already efficient power source even more efficient and cleaner???

you are just making the technology even less accessible to the general public...

Mga crdi engine dito sa pinas bina-bypass egr. Mga montero club talamak jan pati fortuner owners. Sana magkaroon ng batas na ibawal.

Its not like sa europe na super strict.

Sa america pala bakit parang madalang diesel engine jan.

Already answered why you wanting to shift a developing country to exclusively gasoline only is economic suicide in another thread.

Even your boss thinks coal power plants are a necessity. Why not bug him about it. Coal is way dirtier than diesel.

I'd explain further but that would make you better at your "job". 😛

Ilan months ko na binabanggit dito sa tsikot forum na jan ako hindi agree kay presdu about environment.

Example sa smoking yung kinikita tax eh abonado pa DOH para lang gamutin nagkakasakit. Kung ako masunod total ban of cigarette. Ang iallow ko lang importation ng montecristo. Yung tunay na may kwarta lang ang meron karapatan mag puff puff hihit-buga so cigar dapat.

So ang puntos ko kung ano ang destructive sa environment eh dapat heavily tax. I want a healthy philippines. Mabawasan man lang problema ng DOH para ang funding mafocus majority sa education. At gusto ko langawin ang st lukes, medical city and other hospital.

Tama ito ang start na isabatas bawal iblank egr.

Walang bisa pagiging euro4+ rated ng engine kung iblank lang din ang EGR. Maamoy mo lang exhaust ng naka blank, sobrang hapdi sa ilong. May future sana sa diesel kung matanggal lang NOx sa exhaust pero kahit anong diesel treatment gawin, hindi pa rin totally maeliminate. Mga European countries unti-unti na rin nagpplano iphase out diesel sa major cities nila.

Ang hapdi talaga sa ilong, sakit pa sa ulo. Nakapunta ako sa terminal ng bus grabe ewan ko paano nakakatagal yung lungs ng driver at condoctor.

Ang focus ngayon nasa sigarilyo. Baka next year maghipit na pag public place bawal hithit buga.

Pero dapat sa sasakyan mas mahigpit government sa dangerous emission. Example meron nagyosi at nabugahan ka ng secondhand smoke eh masakit pa din ulo pero ibang level pag usok ng diesel. Bantot bantot.

Dapat no registration pag blank egr.
