'The price increases at their whim and fancy. And mind you, the increase is not a few percent but 20%,' one Singaporean commented.
"The price increases at their whim and fancy. And mind you, the increase is not a few percent but 20%," one Singaporean commented.
According to a recent report, Singapore’s core inflation rate remained held steady at 5.5 per cent in February, which is the highest recorded since November of the year 2008. “Hawker food is the main culprit,” said one. “The price increases at their whim and fancy. And mind you, the increase is not a few percent but 20%.”
However, the first commenter responded by saying, “It’s included. Core inflation only excludes accommodation and private transport. You are confused with US core inflation, which is different from Singapore’s.”
