The analysis uses survey data collected for Bangkok's old motorcycle retirement program. While the literature studies only "Cash for Clunkers" schemes, this hypothetical experiment allows us to compare owners' preferences for alternative schemes. Policy implications of the proposed schemes can be inferred after examining owners' responses to different financial incentive provided by the government. Our analysis provides criteria that could be used when choosing one scheme over another. 2012-03-30T07:30:41Z 2012-03-30T07:30:41Z 2009 Journal Article Journal of Policy Modeling 01618938 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/4983 EN http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/igo World Bank Journal Article Thailand
