A bak chor mee is priced MYR 8-10. Their economic rice choose dish average MYR 8-10. Their bread and other similar price range on average is 2+ times what we sinkie pay. Their only consolation is cheap car and petrol so some drive very far to search for cheap food if they can find of cuz.
Unless JB ppl can find job that pay 2+ times of the same job offering in Spore else their daily necessities quite tough. That also explain those live JB some must die die come Spore earn SGD.
Malaysian people hardly shop and eat at JB, remember Malaysia is a Big country they have many " alternatives ".
Malaysian people know JB is a place " to chop carrot on Singaporeans spending there "
If you travel further up, will noticed things more cheaper in JB.
