Consumer price index (CPI) for March 2022
Information from the Statistics and Census Service (DSEC) indicated that the Composite CPI for March 2022 (103.39) rose by 1.07% year-on-year. The increment was attributed to higher wages of domestic helpers, dearer charges for eating out and electricity, as well as increasing gasoline prices and airfares; however, the rise was partially offset by reduced rentals for dwellings, falling charges for telecommunication services and lower prices of pork. Among the various sections of goods and services, the price indices of Household Furnishings & Services and Transport grew by 9.67% and 7.37% year-on-year respectively, whereas the index of Communication fell by 10.32%. The CPI-A (103.17) and CPI-B (103.67) saw respective growth of 0.77% and 1.48% year-on-year.
