solution : side hustle, work longer, accept profit margin smaller , cut staff cost by hire lesser

the onslaught of FB is here

when the person tried to give less ingredient, people angry

Whenever I'm hungry I open food app and see the food prices right away I go kitchen and see what I can cook

Yeah. Everything is so freaking expensive now.

I might as well cook on my own...

Wait...I'm cooking on my own every day.

I used to add an egg to my yee mee, but I stopped once they raised the price to RM1.50 per egg.

Find the cheapest ingredient and create a new dish...owai

in 90s hawker ambil untung like 20 cent at most 50 cent of profit per meal.
it just nowadays, seller need to pay for their luxury.

last time, berniaga ni pakai van buruk je.

Even if they raise oso, there will always be a group of stubborn patrons who will continue to buy & eat. They r the real culprits.

normally i da pao add egg, some dai chow charges 1.50 to 2.00. i cook egg myself if not enough time just boil egg

as long as govt don't control project execution leading to billions lost in undelivered projects, glc bail outs, paying national debts and other mismanagement will sink all of us in due time

setia alam price

ckt - rm9
lei cha - rm13

cant brain

hawkers also mau kaya maaa
u want to support, then buy lor, else, cook urself please

Diu

If all sellers agree to pakat together raise price

What can consumers do

Heheheh

Boikot & stop eating.

sell low how to 500k house LOLOLOL

Most eatery and farmers employ foreign workers, need to pay at least minimum wages, cost is higher, so is price.

as for consumers; if their companies don't make good profit, how to pay high celery?

Hand made own noodle ahh???

Just buy factory made , cost is 50% less , can save more time to tok kok with customer

Well, who dominates the economy gets to simply raise prices with a crooked grin on their faces? We all know the core problems nut mostly shy away from uncomfortable arguments coming from these fairest race defenders here.

In the end price still being raised every semester with every new property or cars these hawkers purchased. kek.

not really, depending on area
i would say half of the area if they increase, they will notice a decrease in customer and they're not coming back anymore
thn half would not be affected

it depends what you're selling and where

Last time 3 dishes, now 2 dishes, future 1 dish

Portion become smaller and less ingredient. Nasi lemak biasa RM3.. normal rice+5 biji kacang and sambal. No ikan bilis. Telur and timun depends on luck, sometimes give u telur kuning only..

Ya la, no raise price, but reduce portion je kan? Oh waitttt

supply and demand
willing buyer willing seller

Like unprofitable toll highways?

IF food good can up price ppl will not complain also. if so so sure kena diao.

Eat in kepong baru confirm is t20 prices. Even at my work area here also already hit t20 prices. My fav prawn mee from 9.50 in 2023 now 12 bucks. Knnccb

even nestle also reducing the number of kit kat bars in their share bag... price remain within the range of RM16 - RM22 owai

Jb alrdy long time become double digit for hawker food one bowl.... Those rm9 considered good alrdy...

I seen a lot price hike this year

Ya ke. Feels like the cost to make one bowl of noodle is like rm1.5 but sell rm10.
All lauk kedekut, just alot noodles.

That one due to cocoa price hike a lot

not sure u all know or not, family mart selling 1 tray of 30pcs at RM6.99 Gred D

My taman food, roti kosong rm3, iced drinks rm5, nasi ayam rm11..
everytime I lazy to cook I remember those price then have no choice but cook instead of dining out.

malaysia fundamental problem is state govt taking away the land meant for food production, malaysia really lack food security planning, don't even bother asking that ministry, that one is a dumb guy.

wait wait wait... wtf kinda eggs rm20 per tray?

grad A right now in aeon, jaya grocer, village grocer also only rm13-14 per tray

WTF EGGS THAT FELLA USING LA?

Last time chicken price increase, hawkers increase their food price. But when chicken price menurun, hawkers price remain the same. Then egg price increase also they increase. But now egg price dirt cheap but never see hawkers decrease price. Now kpkb menagih simpati.

Topkek they use those C/D grade eggs diuniama, small until one gulp already finished

I eat yee Mee now strictly no eggs

i thought now egg can go until RM10per tray (grade B)

This seller at Kuching and i tak tau how much is the egg cost there, if handmade noodle kasi naik jer, the texture is totally different and i believe customer willing to pay extra pun.

but still... i want to know what eggs he using rm20/tray

if macao eggs, it's rm28/tray la... unless he using macao eggs

Eating out is a luxury in developed countries. Since Malaysia is on the way to becoming a developed country, eventually people cannot afford to eat out and have to cook themselves. This is the way.

ayam google search, sarawak punya egg betul betul mahal

https://www.servayonline.com/eggs

Maybe ada egg shortage until spike in price

The hawker wanna lie also don't lie so brazenly la.

this is peninsula egg price, u should check sarawak egg price.

Sky-rocketing costs and runaway foreign worker (ops) is killing them, they have to increase a lot to recoup

Singkie: ada aku kesah? cheap! cheap! cheap!

They are charging 300% on that egg which cost RM0.3X-0.50 at most. If it was a stand alone fried egg we can slightly accept that, but adding a f@rking egg to noodles is minimal effort and didn’t incur much extra cost.

It’s all greed, not to mention the way they increase price by RM0.50 each time is plain robbery and has zero economic basis.

Of koz la, u think this day and age hawkers is content with just driving wira or vannett doing their small time f&b business?

They not stupid, they see nanyang, oriental and other similar cafe can sell so expensive yet it’s always got queue, they also start to charge rm10bucks for hawker food la - which is still selling no problem fyi.

You not the only one want to drive porsche and stay semi-d, bungalow.

Their grade A also around RM14 also. If he uses the Omega one then it's RM20, but hawkers usually don't even use A grade, let alone Omega.

And hawkers probably use grade B or even grade C eggs, not grade A that household mostly buy.

Consumer can also pakat what

Like boikot kepci mekdi

What egg they charge 1.50 each? The golden Omega 3 Kampung egg?

From 168 then OMAD

Kito sudah sehat

Maciam penang

Smol portion

No raise price, then cut the food portion like shrinkflation

they still need to earn profits somehow

Depopulation agenda. Raise the price of everything. Slowly but surely. The water gets hotter and hotter.

need to raise price
booking merc G wagon also on the way d next year arrive
if not, can only afford recond range rover

Which is why I rarely eat noodles as full meal anymore. They are mainly carbohydrates only.

this is hand made noodle can increase price lar.

lol i think sarawak govt/importer impose extra charge la, what else. S&S are few of the the dirtiest state in MY. GRS/GPS whatever lanciao party is not there for fun

Now eat in kopitam also rm10-12 Liao, lagi naik meh.. drinks hvnt kira lagi

but they are hardworking
give them that, they deserved what they earn
f&b really not everyone can do one

nowdays ppl cita2 nak bukak franchise, go listed

summore spent on OE marketing course

Kek

There are sohais who earn 8k a month and spend like 3k+ into dining and complain inflation.

This is east Malaysia.
For peninsula, still business as usual if price up

Business man and gov love this kind of sohai to push the revenue/GDP.

economy petrol raised
market food raises

petrol raise
food raise

petrol drop
food same price

lancau hawker

Come CNY sure naik harga again. Cakap sahaja tak naik. Then gov tell ask us eat less more healthy to avoid obesity. End of story.
Gov will say they have no hand in price rising... but later increase min wage again.
