To avoid any misunderstanding.

Haha, as mentioned in first post of this thread, with inflation and gst increase soon, can expect to see more of price up and shrinking portions 😂 Today also had cai peng from one famous stall - pork chop, potato, long beans plus rice = $5 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is somewhat true. An aunt from Malaysia KL commented that if dun take conversion rates, food for example can be bought at $2 onwards in some hawker centres in Singapore. Whereas she says their minimum is at least from RM$6. These days she say, a bowl of noodles can cost RM$10-12. Ours is S$4-5. Dollar to dollar without conversion, theirs is very ex for the locals. Yada-ing. Thanks for sharing, Bro Mercs 👍. Stay safe Cheers 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Food costs is a bigger % of their disposable income there. only saving grace is private vehicles are cheaper to buy and maintain. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
