&gt;allows the government to monitor ... the precise movement of every locally registered vehicle.<p>Okay, wow. But..<p>&gt;The project appears to be popular in Singapore, where faith in the government is high and citizens have accepted limits on behavior, including restrictions on public speech and the press, in return for a more efficient state.<p>Now it is clear that this article is deeply biased, or maybe just ignorant. I lived in Singapore for several years and am still closely in touch with my community there. I have never heard a single Singaporean show strong confidence or trust in their government, and the lack of free speech is not insignificant to many.<p>I&#x27;m sure several Singaporeans will show up here to tell me I&#x27;m mistaken, but the reality is that there is strong suspicion among many as to the motives of the government, but most can&#x27;t say too much about it publicly because of the punishment imposed.
