*. Luxembourg is the first country ever to make all trains, trams, and buses completely free.

*. The country’s government introduced it as an attempt to reduce congestion from car traffic and pollution.

François Bausch, the minister of mobility and public works, is convinced that “The range, punctuality and quality of the services on offer are crucial to motivating people to change their habits and switch from private cars to public transport.”

They are also planning a systematic expansion of capacity in the national rail network and doubling the current number of P+R parking spaces.

Part of the cost will be covered by eliminating the tax break for commuters which will also encourage people to shift away from the use of private cars in Luxembourg.

In a country like this, I don't mind paying 60% of my income as tax because I know it will be put into good use.

You guys should stop overrating Rwanda, there are African countries that are far ahead of us but definitely not Rwanda.

So your submission for the falsibilityof this news is that they don'thave billionaires not recognised actors and actresses? You are just plain senseless.
Luxembourg is one of the richest countries in the world.

Dangote can't even buy Togo talkless of this Country. Before you comment on any post do well to check your facts well and not spew nonsense. Try and hide your dullness.

Luxembourg is one of the richest countries as well as Qatar.... they are on a higher level than Nigeria in terms of infrastructure,health,citizen welfare,life expectancy and many more,what is the use of having a billionaire when majority of the citizens are poor?they might not have but at least 99% of their citizens are living good lives
