The hostel management of my college posted a notice of rise in price of food items today. Something I have expected but the amount of increase was something I had not predicted.
The Government had lowered petrol price for twice. Once 15cents and next 10cents. They had a hope that it would reduce the burden of the rakyat. Its sad to say, I cant see the impact of fuel price reduction. Price of goods remain the same. And now, students like me have to face the hike in food price.
I hope the relevant authorities can do something about it.Advice sellers not to increase.
Below are some examples of price increase in my canteen:-
Price of white rice from 0.50 to 0.80 ~ I thought rice is a controlled item and our country bought a huge amount from thailand but why...
Price of fried rice increased from RM2.80 to RM3.00 to RM3.30.
Salaries for those in private sector remains constant..how are students like me going to survive with limited pocket money..We need to eat.Cutting down might affect our wellness...
