WHY?   The same ICE CREAM (in 1.5 litre box) selling at SINGAPORE Supermaket for S$5.00 is selling at JB Supermarket for RM5.00?

Is the transportation cost from JB to Singapore plus 7%GST equals to 110% of the INCREASE COST?

OR Are the Singapore RETAILERS CUTTING SINGAPOREANS' THROATS????

XIAO YA....

This TYPE and RATE of INFLATION can KILL every Singaporean consumer....

There are many more ITEMS....of same PRICING PHENOMENOM....

Severe Acute Inflation Syndrom [SAIS]????

CHECK them OUT for yourself....

The old man said: "Kiang to ho, mai kay khiang" - being smart is enough, dun be overly smart. Thus, pay them appropriately, not too much until they can actually retired for good after a 2-3 years sting or for the case of our minister, 1-2 terms.

Have anyone wonder why our CPF's SA ceiling was raised last year from $106k to $117k an increase of >10%? Is Sg's inflation last year at 10%??

The Straits Times



By Robin Chan

THE Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC) has confirmed that it incurred losses from an investment in a prime New York property project after the American owners defaulted on a debt payment at the weekend.

GIC is believed to have written off over US$575 million (S$798 million) and it confirmed to The Straits Times that it 'recognised the losses' on its investment last year in Manhattan's Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village, two enormous housing apartment blocks bought for US$5.4 billion.

GIC did not reveal the exact losses it incurred.
