LTA Volunteers To Install ERP Gantries Across Strait Of Hormuz

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has offered technical consultancy to Tehran to install a massive network of ERP 2.0 gantries across the Strait of Hormuz.

Seeing the global outcry over Iran’s shipping tolls, Singaporean officials expressed total confusion as to why the US and China are so triggered by a standard administrative convenience.

"It's just dynamic congestion pricing," stated an anonymous official while polishing a fine silver placard.

"If the oil tankers don't want to pay the $80,000 'Waterway Entry Fee', they should simply sail through at 4 AM or consider carpooling with a nuclear submarine."

The proposal includes a mandatory OBU (On-Board Unit) for all tankers, which will beep aggressively when a vessel enters the kill-zone or if the CashCard balance is low.

Ministry officials noted that while a naval blockade is effective, nothing halts global trade more efficiently than a $10 processing fee and a series of confusing SMS alerts.

This satire is based on a real news story.
