I surprise people don't realize this:-

houses, food, education, services all the necessities all increase a lot. People of the past has higher purchasing power for these products.

"Products" such as cars, computer, electrical appliances, phone are actually cheaper than the past.
*
House yes. Food and services maybe, I argue that it has increased but not to the scale of other global prices. Say watching a movie for example, it's still cheap in Malaysia compared to China or Singapore or even Bangkok.

hakikatnya dulu pun tetap susah tapi bezanya dulu tak ada iPhone, tak ada Shopee, tak ada GrabFood

Means last time spend less. Not sure how that helped in your argument

exactly,

TV only 3 channel,
no ASTRO, Netflix

No so panas back then, kipas is enuff,
now my home got 8 airconds and always on cause so panas

House phone only, no internet
now got to pay Unifi and upgrade phone at least every 2-3 years

We eat lunch at home during weekdays cause parents can go back during lunch hour
Sometimes we pay people to cook and send multi layer Kaleng to our home.
Now all eat outside, every single person during lunch time

Still go out eat on weekend but only daytime,
we rarely go at night cause back then only night time food court open, no choices
Now, 4am still can bring family eat a full meal outside

No expensive daycare, tuition or play school
we just send to grandparents house, my aunt takes care of us all.
If not, dad just dump us at state library after school.

Kuching. I think same price
Now last time I heard, just around 250k

I moved out already but my brother takes over the home.
ceiling is okay, still need ladder to fix lampu

Ceiling board still stands, maybe a bit bocor here and there
Atap still okay, we lived there in early 80s. so 50 years?
one segment got wooden wall, still stands today
pipes, electrical still okay.

The only problem was some tiles got retak due to construction nearby, got pampasan
renovated and all fine till today
