Something I find odd, noticed the wear on Left tyres seems more significant than right, as most of the time my ride is only myself, cannot understand why tot right should wear more than left, but it seems other wise
a friend of mine owning Toyota also commented that his left also wear more than right.
is this norm? or can it be corrected? If can be corrected what should it be? Alignment or balancing?

there are a few explanations
1) you usually park at multi storey carpark - most likely
2) you like to hard corner while turning right - likely
3) alignment issues - quite remote
4) air pressure in the left tyre lower than the right one - quite remote

mscp most likely reason coz we always turn right when going up or down mscp thus more stress on the left tyre

humm....interesting.....
yes I am parking at MSCP, but usually level 2 leh.
Hard corners unlikely, due to J50 tyres....I dun think its safe to do so....had a few slips before.

roads typical are slightly slanted/sloped to the left in sg, so there's a consistent higher wear rate for the left tyres.
assuming that your tyre pressures are inflated correctly and wheel alignment ok, then hv to rotate your tyres regularly to mitigate this issue which is typical.
