Hike in cost of living by mid year

Increase in SST covers many goods n services which will be passed down to consumers.Increase of tax will see price of apples,oranges,lemon n grapes go up that will hit the B40 n M40 hard.So will increase in financial services tax,construction materials,private education and healthcare.So the price of. shelter,fruits,schooling n medical fees hit the M40 very hard.look at removal of egg subsidy.during hari raya a tray of 30 C grade eggs cost rm5.90.after removal of subsidy it shot up to rm8.90 and today i saw same 30 eggs C grade cost rm10.90 by year end naik again to rm13.90. By increasing cost of raw materials for manufacturing like electricity tariffs and even palm kernel oil tax,the cost of domestic manufactured necessities will go up at a time imported goods get more unaffordable.Having a haircut,basic grooming and wellness business will be taxed too.So will traditional medicine that B40 depend on to heal from chronic diseases because they cant afford expensive,imported modern medicine. Kini rakyat mula rasa hampa dengan Putus Harapan dengan kenaikan semua perkhidmatan and benda asas bergilir gilir.Kenaikan kos kepada perusahaan SME akan menjejas keuntungan slim margin of profit. Hanya Dr Wee dari MCA dan Lim Guan Eng keluar di media massa mengkritik polisi ekonomi yang membebankan B40 dan M40 sekaligus.Apa jadi kepada Pembangkang yang paling vokal seperti Derhaka Ada Peluang tapi Diam diri Akan Pecat.Rakyat membantah poiisi ekonomi yang membebankan kos kehidupan kami.
