    Shocking & Interesting at same time to see comments which indicates a complete lack of comprehension on global economics and root cause of sharp rise in inflation (Hint: Country starts with letter U). Perhaps limited horizon (格局) steers one's understandings and opinions. IMHO, Budget 2024 has been one of better at proactively addressing current and upcoming impacts SG will face in major shift in world order and dynamics.

    Singaporeans were spoiled. No any government did better than Singapore. Government finance is sustainable and continues support local people.

    Base on my observation, the only true way to know if the ruling party has done enough during their governing term is during the General Election. The votes will tell it all.  The incumbent president, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, who took office on 14 September 2023 had won in the 2023 presidential election with 70.41% of the vote. This indicates strong support from the people.  If Singaporeans truly believe the current government is doing and living up to expectations (which includes easing cost of living), people will vote for them. If not, they won't.

    What to do. No choice as we stay here in Singapore. Unless we are rich can migrant to other country. Keep clam and eat one chicken wing first. While soon they will take back one whole chicken. 🤣
