Why did the price of a Ya Kun toast set jump 31% in 3 years - from $4.80 in 2020 to $6.30 today?

Everyone should get pay increases except god forbid, hawkers, and in general low wage workers.

Yeah. edmwer want hawker and blue collar worker without pay increment. Also expecting business owner to breakeven or do charity for bbfa.

Anyway, edmwer here can boycott all they want. Outside people still buy as long as it is significantly cheaper than starbucks or other cafe.
