These are the Singapore inflation rates for 2013:
January: 3.6%
February: 4.9%
March: 3.5%
April: 1.5%
May: 1.6%
June: 1.8%
Healthcare is once again leading the pack,
rising by 4.3%. Housing and Recreation & Others are tied, rising 3%
respectively year on year.
Transport is still carrying on its
downward trend, dropping by 1.6% year on year, which represents a lower
drop compared to previous month. There is a slight uptrend most probably due to the increase of oil prices, increasing by almost 1% compared to last month. There was also a general uptrend in inflation for
the other items in the inflation basket.
As mentioned previously, the next few
months will most probably see an uptrend in the inflation according to
the trend I'm seeing from the results, and based on my observations on
the private transport pricing.
