Food services were up by 4.6 percent, with hawker food now costing 4.8 percent more, while food items grew by 4.5 percent, led by fish and seafood (7.3 percent), meat (7 percent), oils and fats (6.7 percent), and milk, cheese and eggs (6 percent).Services prices were up by 2.6 percent in May, against 2.5 percent in April, which was attributed to a faster rise in holiday expenses and point-to-point transport services.The cost of retail and other goods increased by 1.8 percent, up from 1.6 percent in April, on the back of clothing and footwear, personal effects, and personal care products expenses.Meanwhile, electricity and gas prices grew by 19.9 percent in May, compared with 19.7 percent in April, as the MAS and MTI noted that “average prices of electricity plans offered by Open Electricity Market retailers rose at a faster pace”.Private transport costs, which are not included in core inflation, grew by 18.5 percent in May, against 18.3 percent in April, as global oil prices drove up petrol costs. Similarly, accommodation costs were up by 4 percent, more than the 3.9 percent growth seen in April.Still, the MAS and MTI reiterated the official forecast for full-year all-items inflation is between 4.5 percent and 5.5 percent, and core inflation of 2.5 percent to 3.5 percent.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9043749083,"gmtCreate":1655970811042,"gmtModify":1676535742819,"author":{"id":"4097750438225520","authorId":"4097750438225520","name":"Simonnov","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4097750438225520","authorIdStr":"4097750438225520"},"htmlText":"Ic","listText":"Ic","text":"Ic","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9043749083","repostId":1106866519,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9043755071,"gmtCreate":1655970168593,"gmtModify":1676535742650,"author":{"id":"3575091428590185","authorId":"3575091428590185","name":"HENRYCSC","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d47a6dec25b21dc547a5b982674c499","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3575091428590185","authorIdStr":"3575091428590185"},"htmlText":"Thanks&nbsp;","listText":"Thanks&nbsp;","text":"Thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9043755071","repostId":1106866519,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9043725404,"gmtCreate":1655969051208,"gmtModify":1676535742418,"author":{"id":"3578790486524477","authorId":"3578790486524477","name":"hphoa","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/28a11e936497493af7ee5ccdc32238a3","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3578790486524477","authorIdStr":"3578790486524477"},"htmlText":"K","listText":"K","text":"K","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9043725404","repostId":1106866519,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9043767842,"gmtCreate":1655967946786,"gmtModify":1676535742227,"author":{"id":"4089461104605170","authorId":"4089461104605170","name":"MSTAN","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/1d0ff53a35c30afecbd1fa0c5ed59f07","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4089461104605170","authorIdStr":"4089461104605170"},"htmlText":"👌👌","listText":"👌👌","text":"👌👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9043767842","repostId":1106866519,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9043760309,"gmtCreate":1655966432701,"gmtModify":1676535741930,"author":{"id":"3580011914778910","authorId":"3580011914778910","name":"VivianChua","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3580011914778910","authorIdStr":"3580011914778910"},"htmlText":"Noted
