Is car duty the right way out?
The government's plan to raise the vehicle import duty and annual vehicle registration fee to make cars more expensive has met public opposition. With good reasons. The car has revolutionised the way Bhutanese live. It has allowed hundreds to travel where they will, in comfort and security, at a time of their own choosing. Owning a car remains a goal for hundreds of others. To have to pay more now for something that has long been at lesser cost is unfair.
