As the world moves towards cleaner energy solutions, Brunei must not be left behind. Electric vehicles (EVs) represent an essential step in the global transition to sustainable transportation.
With zero tailpipe emissions, EVs help to reduce air pollution, improve public health and contribute to the fight against climate change, an issue that increasingly impacts all nations, including Brunei.
While EVs offer long-term economic and environmental benefits, their higher upfront costs remain a barrier for many. This is where government intervention, in the form of subsidies, becomes critical. By offering subsidies for EV purchases, the authorities can incentivise citizens to adopt this cleaner technology, speeding up the transition away from fossil-powered vehicles. Such subsidies would not only make EVs more affordable for the average consumer, but also demonstrate the national commitment to environmental sustainability.
Moreover, investing in EVs aligns with our goals of diversifying its economy and reducing its reliance on oil. As global oil demand shifts, fostering a domestic EV market would position us as a leader in clean energy, attracting investment and creating new economic opportunities. It is time for the country to drive towards a greener, more sustainable future by supporting the adoption of EVs.
