Inflation is never a good thing to have.

However, cai png which cost $11, noodles which cost $7, char siew fan which cost $8 and takeaway box @ 50 cents are:-
 
Multiple choice question here.

1.  Daylight robbery
2.  Rip offs
3.  Profiteering

You'd get it right whichever answer you choose.

The 50 cent charge is not a result of inflation.  It is a result of greed. Greed is horrible, not inflation.

One cze char stall in a Kallang coffee shop charge 0.80 per container box for its various takeaway dishes
But at least it gives 10% discount if your total bill is over $50.00

Tampines & West Coast GRCs are there for the taking

singapore companies mostly behave such a way

they cannot innovate for better products to clinch more market shares

they raise prices to enhance their pockets deeper

that's the main reason why singaporeans shouldn't support such local

just let them bleed to their deathbed

anyway
these foods you can easily make at the comfort of your own home

and most of them serve with an atittude like you owe them money

so why waste your money on these arseOs who always think they have the government behind to leech on
