Just like rice, beer, wine, medicine, car, etc, all for the benefit of cronies.

Actually 'expensive' or not depends on the type of coffee.
Arabica is generally more expensive than Robusta but non-specialty grade Arabica is actually not expensive at all.
Even if it's specialty grade, the reason it's expensive here is because of our currency. sad.gif

If you start enjoying starbucks, you'll be delighted that there are many other independent cafe these days serving even better coffee with nicer ambiance, and sometimes much cheaper as well.

I love the booming coffee culture in Malaysia.

people buy starbucks as a lifestyle now
indeed 8 out of 10 people who buy starbucks will take a picture of it or at least check-in there and post it to social media
imo starbucks sells lifestyle and services instead of coffee
teeangers would love to meetup at starbucks and have a chit chat there and can stay there for hours (some also do their assignments or working stuff there)

p.s
personally i like starbucks' asian dolce latte tongue.gif

First of all, Starbucks is a rip off. I go there once and ordered 2 Iced Caramel Mochiatto and Iced Mocha...bla bla bla... and it costed me around RM30.00 for a single day. So after that I never went there ever again.

However, there're 3 sizes, Tall (smallest of cups), Grade (Medium), and Venti (Largest).

Maybe I should visit there once in a while.
