Hidden Secrets of Money : Singapore expanded its money supply as saw in Episode 1

[lifeafter41]

Came across this interesting website : www.hiddensecretsofmoney.com by Mike Maloney

Where on watching the Episode 1, it was indicated that Singapore too, also expanded its money supply, pretty much to the US, quantitative easing, aka, printing of money. (18:11 of 25:56). Not sure how accurate this is, but its seems that in Singapore, prices, are rising in tandem, whether if it is food, housing etc.

Is this a most likely cause of inflation?.
Currency versus Money, thought provoking.....
Interesting video, Episode 1 and 2, can't wait for Episode 3....

spore has been expanding money supply for decades!

This was to keep our exports going strong; suppressing the value of the sing dollar deliberately.
That's why prices of everything has gone up 10-20 x.

Purchasing power of pple income and cpf totally destroyed.

On the flip side, those who borrowed heavily benefited by having the value of their debt wiped out by inflation.

Inflation = stealthily stealing purchasing power from those with fixed incomes or savings and transferring it to someone else.

Does that mean high HDB prices, is due to inflation rather than asset enhancements?.
If that's true, would that mean buying land/properties is a good hedge against inflation, rather than keeping it in cpf or savings.
