Maybe all those Asians with a whole family on a scooter would like a car as well.I don't change my car every 3-5 years (neither does my wife), they (cars) are looked after, serviced regularly and will run for years to come. WHY therefore are more and more cars required?

Re: Water tanks
^I just had a read of some translated ads for those DOS tanks with the pump on top and it seems it's purely for space saving and aesthetics.
There is a cover to protect the pump to make it look tidier and I suppose in a small property it could make sense.

^I doubt if China's problems are helped by being the world's largest importer of fossil fuels.
It's the same with Thailand, all the money that goes to importing oil is a huge drain on the economy that could be avoided with a move to renewable energy and electric transportation.
