I am a regular at Rochore soya bean store at Selegie where the 2 warring brothers sell soya bean products including Ham chi pang etc. Had a rude shock this morning when they increase their prices by 10cents ( drinks and toufa ) and 20 cents for all fried products ( ham chi pang , butterfly etc ) . Cost of production so low for such products using flour and soya beans coupled with using low cost labour ( old aunties and china gals which they are paid peanuts ) reaping huge profits yet got cheek to increase price substantially.
When told price increased by 10 to 20 cents , I just walked off , that will be my last visit to these stores selling soya bean and ham chi pang products. Hope patrons will take notice of this rip off practice and ban them so that they will understand the plight of consumers . If every consumer practice this habit of banning unscrupulous hawkers, restaurants ,food courts from raising prices unreasonably , things will not be too expensive.
