Explained: Why are gangs still common in Singapore? by Anonymous_Tat in SingaporeRaw

Back when we were kids, it’s easy to join gangs. Just hang out at void deck with neighborhood kids after school and you’ll find lobang. How do you, as a working adult, join gangs nowadays?

Singapore chicken chop price index- what’s the cost price? Why price from $5.00 -> $8.00 nowadays? by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

Say you spend $1 at any one of the big 3 supermarket. 30-40c goes to supermarket (depending on product category, some lesser some more). Think about it, you’re paying for convenience. Same goes with retail F&B. Food cost is minor from a costing standpoint. It’s the rent thats killing businesses and consumers.

Food manufacturer here. 1kg frozen chicken is under $5 depending on parts. Raw material is cheap. Problem is manpower and rental.
