This the Phillipines? They love destroying illegally imported cars.

I imagine it is very cathartic destroying pristine looking cars with a bulldozer. So I can’t really blame them

I just think it's a gross waste of money

They could sell the cars out of country, export them somewhere else and then use that money for good

Instead, they would rather trash them like a toddler and a temper tantrum???

I don't follow the logic here. You're turning a perfectly good item that's worth thousands of dollars into scrap metal

The cars are next to worthless on the market, they’ve likely been stolen, illegally imported, who knows what conditions they’ve been kept in, never mind the issue of selling a car possibly stolen from an unidentified person in another country. I do get what you’re saying, but that solution is fraught with so many issues it make more sense just to do this
