The South East Asia Statistics (Seasia Stats) Website recently released an Infographic using Data from the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) showing the number of Vehicle Owners for every 1,000 People of the major Countries in South East Asia (SEA).
The Infographic showed that among the seven SEA Countries with Data, our Country the Philippines is at the bottom of the List with only 48 Vehicle Owners for every 1,000 People. Vietnam has even overtaken us with 68.
Indonesia has more than twice that of ours at 99 while Singapore has more than four times at 211. Thailand has almost six times than ours at 275, while Malaysia has more than ten times that of us at 490. Lastly, the small but rich Country of Brunei has almost 18 times that of ours at 850.

MY THOUGHTS: With Personal Vehicles being so expensive, they are one Way to show how prosperous a Country’s Citizens are, and us being so low in the Ranking just shows how our Government continue to FAIL the Filipino People, especially this Government under Bong Bong Marcos (BBM).
Note that while our Vehicle Ownership is very low, traffic in the National Capital Region (NCR) and nearby Areas are quite notoriously bad and is considered one of the worst in the entire World. This just reflects the lack of Road Infrastructure in the Country, and how what little of it we have is concentrated only in and around NCR.
And yet instead of focusing most if not all of our effort on Infrastructure and Progress, this Bangag Government wants to “fight China” instead. Oh, they’re not going to go to War with China ‘daw’, just spending two trillion Philippine Pesos in Military Equipment and Weapons so we can insult each other, but not go to War ‘daw’.
‘Para hawakan lang daw ng Tenga, asaran at pitikan ng Ilong lang sa Tsina yung dalawang trilyon na gagastusin nila para sa Armas’ (All the Weapons they will buy for two trillion pesos will only be for daring to touch each other’s Ears, trading Insults and flicking the Nose fight with China).
