CDC vouchers value too small, must give $200 per person instead of $100 per household.

Carbon tax will be the next time that will kill sinkie..
1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

What else I miss out?🤔
Satellite ERP where vehicles will be charged (every 500m like cab?) when traffic starts to jam.
It will jack up transport cost and all goods that needs physical delivery.
Most street lamp posts have already been replaced for this new ERP - the new lamp has a flatter design and comes with a "bump" on top.

After taking order then said $5.50 .
Used to be crowded, now deserted, likely people are boycotting for the drastic increase.
Some stalls still selling at $4 and just as good .
Matter of the hawker wanting to earn more or less.
only for a while. after that still will eat when see every store also up.
no up one not nice. you want to eat?
hawker food is still cheap. the landlord will be utilmate winner as they will up rental after the successful price up by hawker.
hawker will pay if still can make money with the new price. nothing new. just keep repeating like groundhog day.

I will definitely not patronise the stall again.
There are so many other better options for $5.50.
Our cash is king!
