Several Singaporeans asked where they could find such low prices for delicious fare in Singapore.
A recent online discussion among Singaporeans has brought up the cost of living and dining in Johor Bahru , Malaysia. The debate was sparked by a post from a Singaporean who described JB residents as “lucky” since they can eat very cheap food every day.
This sentiment was echoed by some, with one commenter stating, “Malaysia is definitely cheaper than Singapore. Singapore has the title of most expensive place in the world, rental is rocket high, electricity and water bill plus GST high also. We asked for it.” One said, “Cheap your head la. How is a plate of noodles RM8 to RM10 cheap?!” Another explained, “It’s cheap because of our strong dollar…if you stay there it’s not cheap.”
