Since the price already gone up . Why would they sell cheaper? Especially when their closest rival is selling at the same price as them or even more expensive. Not to mention the cost of feeds for chicken had not gone down at all. Edited June 9, 2023 by Beregond ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then to retailers..... Chicken rice uses mainly live chicken source, maybe the pricing didn't drop even with Indonesian live chicken import.... Maybe importer earning more due to RM currency exchange. Maybe they are also paying more for the remaining value chain in SG. Maybe hawker paying more for utilities, labour, cleaning charges.... 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Chicken from Bintan will be more ex than Malaysia. Need Sg truck driver + Barge. Overall, chicken price will increase due to diversification. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we should reclaim or create an island in south, name it Pulau Ayam. 🐔 Put all the high tech, high rise chicken farm for both meat and egg supply and become self sustainable supply, frozen stocks of 1 year supply... Since we have sufficient stockpile of rice that can last years. Should use MND or Mindef budget for food defence. Nparks can buy processed chicken droppings as fertiliser.

Victor68 Turbocharged January 30, 2024 Share January 30, 2024 Prices once up, you will not see it come down anymore. Nothing to do with where it come from. Profiting and price collusion is the only explanation. Why my shoppee item flew all the way from China is still cheap Leh? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he wants 600ml (rather than 500ml), he needs to pay USD500 for a new mould. My friend thought it might be same price in Malaysia. He was wrong. Malaysia supplier told him to pay RM50k for the mould. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
