It is no surprise that Singapore tops 2022 World Most Expensive City this year accordingto EIU (Economist Intelligence Unit).  Supplychain disruption due to China's zero Covid policy and Russia-Ukraine war had driven theworld's inflation by and large.  Singapore being a premier world investment hub has the most expensive car ownership price due to government's strict control in car number.  Heavy duty is also imposed in alcohol and tobacco.  

It is indeed the most expensive city for foreigners to live in.  However, for the local residents, we have our own way of surviving.  The public transport is easily accessible, affordable and convenient.  Car ownership is therefore not a strict necessity.   Most of us could also do without alcohol and tobacco as a living necessity. For housing, the locals have HDB option which is still within reach.  

Singapore 🇸🇬 is a garden city and is my home.  It's a safe place to live in where the heart belongs.  The beauty of multi-racial harmony, rich culture and peace is something money cannot buy. 

I can feel the inflation heat as I move aroundhaving to incur higher food prices.  Fortunately food courts are easily accessible and still within my affordability. 

I wish my fellow friends living in this same island will stay sane, manage and be happy always.  Love ❤️ and cheers.
