Remember when that clueless then Senior Minister of State for the Environment and Water Resources, Amy Khor said in Parliament that the rental price of hawker stalls does not directly affect food prices? I am absolutely gobsmacked hearing that overpaid, overrated and overhyped Amy Khor claim that hawkers’ rentals have no direct relation to the food prices they charge. Does she possess even an ounce of common sense?

she was DEFINITELY LYING W 2 EYES WIDE OPEN
such heartless woman can be an mp representing the welfare of the residents only pap selected her to go for election.
if she has an ounce of heart shld not say such rubbish.!!

simple logic can tell why are food sold at food court more expensive than that of hawker ctr becos of 2x  n more higher rental
food ingrediebnts n labour coat do not cost 2x more only rentals


remember >10yrs ago vivan said no more building hawker ctrs
finally still hv to build more hawker ctrs as many cant afford everdy go food courts n restaurants hv their 3 meals there

same logic ard 1970 pap no more building 3 rm flats at least 4 rms 
later still go back to basics to build 3 rm flats for lower paid workers.
these millionaie=re ministers n rich pap mps lost touch w the ground many many yrs.

It costs $4 from Ghim Moh Hawker Centre. A few tiny shreds of fatty minced pork and lettuce with the noodles for this dry bak chor mee.

That hawker doesn't dare do this when I eat there. She probably does this to customers who pack her BCM or fish ball noodles and discover the scam after they reach the office or home.

Hinting to us not to patronize Hawker Centers

Because we cannot afford, lah

Orchard, City Hall, Changi Business Park, Mumbai Gardens . . .

any many parts of SG are all built for FTs

Since FTs are rich, let them be regular customers there

For me- I will eat there only a few times a year as a luxury.

Based on your picture 

Egg Noodles portion above 300ml= 30 cents

5 Bean sprouts= 10/20 cents

Chives= 20/ 25 cents

------------------------------------

Total= 75 cents only (MAX)

My logic is- PAP don't even fully support Hawker Center

So, why should I support Hawker Centers?

I also cook my Chow Min that costs around $3 (2 servings) 

because of fried wanton 55 cents

Is ST printing such article to challenge my IQ? Some hidden motive behind whilst using the nearly $1 Billion fund for survival.
