that is exactly my house where I grew up
2 rooms, 1 bathroom, kitchen sink outside, 1 shared area for living room/dining, corner lot

Now 4 rooms, still 1 bathroom but toilet separate.
all covered and paved, can fit 2 cars inside gate, 2 cars private parking outside.
kitchen took the whole backyard space.
1 area for living room, 1 for area for TV/dining

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.

Ceiling board still stands, maybe a bit bocor here and there
Atap still okay, we lived there in early 80s. so 50 years?

The only problem was some tiles got retak due to construction nearby, got pampasan

During that time cost of living and houses are still affordable , car consider a luxury , mostly are using kapcai for travel around town.
Mcd kepci also consider luxury foods where only on special occasions for normal families. Nowadays terbalik dy where fast food are more affordable.

Nah, a plate of Ayam Penyet + Teh Ais is still cheaper than a Big Mac set or Snack Plate Combo.
Just had breakfast, Kolo Mee + Teh O Ais = RM8.60

This thread suddenly become okdfag gathering.

I remember McD last time kena kecam from my parents. Spend RM3 to eat roti (burger) only. Better than the same money go eat KFC snack plate, RM3.95 if not mistaken.
