They take our money. Then scare we no money. So they decided to give us money. As if it's such a great act?

Then might as well dun take our money in the first place😒

 

it's to buy time only...

increase prices, the rich dun feel anything

the middle and low income feel the pain, so need to give them some sweets

then after some time, everyone get used to the higher prices liao

another round of inflation can start again 🥴

This monitoring is BS la. Unless they go audit all the hawkers' operating costs. And u can't control how much a plate of chicken rice they can sell. 

One of the better things in SG is the relatively cheap food in hawker and coffeeshops. But it isn't so for the last 3 years. Kopi easily 1.5, zhi char hor fun easily 6 dollars, cai png easily 5 bucks. It's natural for prices to go up through the years but our wages did not go up at the same rate. The 200 cdc voucher is just a joke and a chance to drive prices up higher.

 

U control their price. They give smaller quantity loh. 😂😂

U see the size of mcd and KFC burger now.

The bao selling at kopitiam is 1/3 size of the bar last time. Not only its smaller by alot. It's more expensive 😪

I am expecting my kopi to be near $2 a cup and zichar around $8 a plate by 2025 after all the GST, water, transport and electrical increases from now till 2025.

Then all the fried stuff like CKT, carrot cake, etc  at hawker....may start at $5 for small.

I don't know what is the typical salary increment rate is today  but I think such prices is going to be hard for the average earning  families.

I will propose to the management to freeze your pays to cover the increase in company operating costs(water/electricity).

I have seen solar panels on HDB windows. Might try that. Will connect exercise bike to battery also. 

As top floor resident when rain fall I will trap to fill up my cistern.

See what ideas govt will implement to make this illegal.
