Easy example that corruption still exists- the new registration of vehicles is supposed to RANDOMLY assign numbers, yet people still getting their favorite number plates 888, 555, 8383 etc.... all in their fleets..so it randomly gives them those numbers?

It have a contractor who have a contract to get all #72 until he ded

Also a leasing rental company does get all theirs
Reversible 5445, 6776 etc

8’s normally reserved for chinee as good luck number

So why not let people pay for the plates that they want?

Exactly, and that would be another income stream......they can also vary the charge based on the type of number as well....

666 means nothing to many people.

But the jackasses who believe in religion say its some sort of a devil that they read about in a book that was written before they were born and have no evidence that the said contents were true.

I said it...and?

Get over it

Went to see him as my vehicle that was purchased from MASSY had the incorrect chassis number on the certified copy since first registration, the vehicle was legally transferred twice before I owned it and had been inspected on time each year, and when the time to transfer it a license officer picked up on the error.
The only apparent way to get it rectified was to see the transport commissioner himself, all legal documentation was there including the massy documents which clearly showed that it was an error on the part of the L.O.
Needless to say the commissioner himself apparently could not read what was before him and asked all sort of stupid questions that had he read what was there he would have known.
I had to point out all the issues for them to get it rectified all the while his attitude was somewhat rude, ignorant and condescending so kindly excuse me if I disagree with your high opinion of him.

Respect? Worked with this guy on some projects, and it's clear he don't stand bs and would real his officers to do their job and would go after the ingrained corruption with all his ability.

But not getting your way or being able to pass a little envelope under a table and the guy is incompetent.

I'm sure Ben spanna went to see him with some shady 'rights' or 'damaged' firewall Rooster and bull story and get a hymc. What you expected? A tap on the back and " mighty good one lad, but not today, keep Kipper and try another time, cheerio mate."

I believe monk was referring to the new person who is set to take over, has a better attitude than the current officer.
