  ever wonder why they are still selling at that price?  because there are customers willing to pay that amount!!!

  just boycott.  in no time they will either close or reduce price.  otherwise it will only mean its not so ex to that neighbourhood afterall.

   

  I predict they will close shop after another half a year or so.

  Those stalls that charge so high will find it difficult to survive.

  I give them less 3 months before they close shop for good.

  Words spread like wide fire.

  serious? It's time the govt set up a body to regulate rental prices. End of the day, singaporeans suffer. Anyway, is this the same wet market which made the news for its high bid to convert it into what it is now?
