If compare this year to last year, it will appear low. If compare prices of this year to 2-3 years ago. U will see huge difference.

2024 just started, you have to assess the inflation in Q4 to see how much price hike over the entire year comparing to last year.
Last year’s price hikes were shockingly high, hopefully it will slow down this year.

Retrenchment with Recession in Inflation. Nightmare for locals while FTs will not feel it as their salaries are too high.
