Even the article acknowledges that "The city-state has excellent public transport links by bus and subway". Clearly the city realizes they are running out of space and want to prioritize people over cars. The remark at the end - " your own family comes first" - just ends up sounding selfish and anti-social.

It does suck that it caters to the rich rather than the needy but taxation is just how you deincentivise certain behaviors in a capitalist society. Hopefully Singapore counters this with subsidized special transport for the handicapped and elderly.

The general consensus in the media is to not name or talk much about the shooter. It gives other troubled kids the opportunity to see them as a role model.
