800,000 houshold to get utility rebate

I am surprised that over 800,000 households are receiving the utiliies rebate. That seems to be more than 50% of all households in Singapore.

Why are we increasing the cost of living to a high level that a large percentage of households need to get the rebate?

This reminds me of an old scout song, "They say in the army, the pay is mighty fine. Give your $100, take back $99".

In our case, the government increases the cost of living to a high level, by imposing 7% GST, and then give rebates. This is opposite to the scout song. LOL.
