Many people don't fully grasp inflation in economic terms. For example, if the price of Tic Tacs stays the same but the quantity per package is reduced, that change might not be directly reflected in GDP inflation figures. It's similar to the shrinking size of HDB flats, where the value seems to diminish even if the sticker price remains unchanged.
