Inflation in Singapore finally ends as retail prices drop, gas & electricity cheapest in 2 years

[kopiOkid]

Typical feel-good news leading up to GE

Hype it up as much as they can.

Then a week after, they will hike it back.

Think about it, if government had a culture of data transparency, have independent (not "independent") auditors to check on its data sources, and formatting it transparently in a way that is easy for MOE-educated laymen to comprehend, we don't need "helpful people" like tarous to help to gaslight us. We'll see clearly that the data matches our daily experience, and if the match is poor, it will be a job for the government to figure out why their statistics don't match the ground situation.

Not for us to get convinced that our ground situation is actually fine.

Your annual increment is how much?

I am in construction line. The pay depends on construction economical performance and whether there is OT pay. During 2007 when there was construction of MBS and resorts world and the economy boomed, I got the max basic pay. From then on my basic pay had never exceeded that figure.

In economics it is very bad to have 0 inflation or deflation. Most countries aim for long term 2% a year increase. Do t believe can ask Jamus

any one can confirm we are seeing 2% inflation only yearly?
my chai png increase from 2.70 to 4.50,
chicken rice increase from 2.50 3.50 and many other,
free market economy, but all this coffeshops are cartel like and not forgetting gov increases, all way more than 2%.

If one can pay $8 for boutique coffee, why complain pay $2 for Kopishop kopi?

Inflation lower doesn't mean price decrease, just means the prices are increasing slower

that one is slower inflation, the thread reads inflation ended.. pure bullocks!

Then how about the time when cai png never increase price for 10 years? 0% inflation? You take it that it never happened? Joker la you

Perfect Stockholm Syndrome power play. Create the abuse then now force the victim to be happy that the abuse has paused temporarily.

Everybody keeps sharing their aircon story but NOBODY even mentions the TEMPERATURE setting and average DURATION of daily use? No wonder it's easy for foreign meddlers to play with numbers to deceive us.
