My Dinner Got Promotion, I Didn’t

[SheRa]

Went to my neighborhood Kopitiam to dabao dinner and realised all the stalls have raised their prices by at least 50 cents to a dollar again. I asked the stall owner where I bought my food whether it was just a surcharge or a permanent increase. He confirmed it’s permanent. Nice… but my salary still Hentak kaki leh!

Money laundering hub = hyperinflation. Get used to it.

The CNY food surcharge is based on the theory that the food sellers should be closing shop for the holidays, but they are bearing with the 'inconvenience' of opening their business now to provide a service to you, thus you must recompense them for their sacrifice.

Also, you're supposed to be stocked up on goodies and groceries during CNY anyway, you shouldn't be buying food outside.

And why not ? PAP is going to vote for a major increase for themselves and hawkers should too.

They make big bucks during cny holidays. Even without a increase in prices.

The SG govt specialises in "open corruption".

S'poreans live with the Swiss Cost of Living - not the Swiss Standard.

Legalised corruption is when Ministers pass a law to pay themselves obscene wages. Just because they didn't steal the money doesn't make them honest.
