I see all these takeovers at record prices and stall rent doubled as a very unhealthy trend. This will evolve in a few well loaded people controlling the f n b industries and the eventual sufferers are the consumers.

C then sells his food to consumers D at astronomical price.
A and B are actually together sharing the loot. They are syndicate members squeezing blood money from consumer D through the stall renter C. (However D has a choice of not buying)......... 
End of the day is YOU and ME , Consumers CAN CHOOSE.
UNLESS Suck thumb there is ONLY just one coffeeshop there serving the community OR you can just take feeder bus go nearby around your neighbourhood eat from other coffeeshop or walk there as " exercise " treat it your morning stroll walk than eat breakfast at other cheaper coffeeshop.
I not sure behind these landlord. Surely they have to increase rental to earn back from those hawkers rent their stall.
than Hawkers pass the cost to consumers " IF " They still want to stay renew contract.
So What " if " this coffeeshop all hawkers don't want to renew so how landlord find new hawker?
Another " Dumb " hawker will come to rent it so high than nearby coffeeshop? How he/she going to profit ? One bowl sell 10 dollars ?
UNLESS ALL COFFEESHOPS IN SG ARE LIKE THIS which is impossible. Surely some landlord don't want to sell to another owner as their location is good want to do continue do pass down to their generation.

Although consumers have a choice, ultimately the gov has a responsibility to checkmate the greedy coffee shop owners in driving food prices artificially upward to feed their pockets at the expense of consumers.
What gov can do is to build hawker centers nearby these greedy coffee shops so that consumers have other sources to buy their cai png at reasonable prices. I noticed in many places hawker centers are very scarce leaving consumers with not much avenues to buy cheaper food except from these greedy coffee shops.
I tell you PAP better do something quick before the price of cooked food spiral out of control caused by a few greedy mother c-bai coffee shop owners. Of course a few smart azz guys will say people have a choice but end of the day sheep are sheep and will be slaughtered. Gov is elected by these sheep to protect them.......
