With the Middle East uncertain

With the Middle East uncertainty and elevated oil prices and supply crunch, rising prices will be affecting most products and services, CDC Is helpful but are not available for use everywhere. Depending on the duration of the wars, if it's extending few more months, costs increases would be a lot more substantial and would have deeper implications on businesses, jobs and overall economy, and more drastic measures would be required.

Rising Prices Across SG, Can CDC Offset Costs?

Beyond market volatility, many of us are likely feeling another kind of “price surge” in daily life. Since early April, Singapore has entered a broad repricing mode — fuel prices flashing higher, electricity bills creeping up, and even your daily cup of kopi costing a few cents more. Do you see these early payouts as a timely relief, or insufficient to fully ease the pressure? How long do you think high oil prices will last? Will vouchers + easing tensions help, or will uncertainty around Trump and Iran keep prices elevated?
