so do we thank the gahmen for these cheap food?

Justical SG

maybe the one who do the survey, goes around and tell the stall owners. "Eh Uncle/Auntie, I here do makan survey. What's special huh?"

"Ah di, come come, try my food. Cheap cheap. Only $2.50. For you only. "

Ferret SG

should do onr survey of our own also.

CASE finds many cooked food dishes being sold for S$2.50 and below, but CONSUMERS find even more cooked food dishes being sold for S$3.50 and above

a bowl of $3.50 curry chicken noodle can barely fill my stomach!

ahahahahhaa i rikes the way u said it

Medicated Oil SG

Maybe the organisation employed the three gentlemen from M1 advert to perform the survey.

That is why the result is so "wo wo".

S$1.30 - 1 chicken - 18 plates = smaller portion? or bone together

S$4.00 - 1 chicken - 13 plates = bigger portion? or boneless chicken.

how big or small each chicken? what average weight of each chicken?

water / electricity? S$700 vs S$1,900.00? different so much? water/electricity = SP services, unlike gas has few other provider, which can different in gas price.

selling 20 -30 chicken per day can get average S$2,000.00 per month

selling 60 - 90 chicken per can only received S$1,300.00 per month.

work more pay less

Haiya, one seller could be cooking the chickens himself. The other bought from wholesaler. Hence the difference in the bills.

The information is a bit vague. To sample the $1.30 chicken rice, public transport should be provided for those who live far away and can't afford the bus fare.

Chunseah SG

why all cheap food always so far away from my hse or work place. Cannot afford to take $2 transport to and fro for cheap food lah. This report is so unless.

deathmaster SG

i think that the statisticians purposely show only those stalls selling $2.50 food.

the coffee shop near my house, minimum price starts from $3...

maybe at hawker center then you can see $2.50, if u are lucky. but since they stop constructing wet market, how many people actually live close to a hawker center?

exactly. unless places selling cheap food happens to be your near house. if you stay somewhere in boon lay and i tell you pasir ris got this coffee shop selling $1 chicken rice. cheap but whats the point when you cannot get to eat?

mamamamama SG

anyway i think only those poor and average Singapore will even bother to kpkb about all these. those rich ones are in charge of doing surveys such as "Cooked food dishes being sold for S$2.50 and below" and then giving themselves a pat in the back for doing such a good job.
