Hi Guys,
I'm curious to know if there is a cost of living crisis in your country and if you are feeling the effects of rising goods and services.
I'm Australian, and the inflation rate in 2023 was over 4%.
I have noticed significant increases for everyday essentials like food, petrol and utilities.
The cost of petrol is around $2.10AUD per litre, which is insane.
Let's hope things improve in the near future because the current state of things is unsustainable.
For me, the cost of living in my country now depends on a person's job. Many people now work but the salary is not suitable, some are even willing to work according to the working hours and the salary is not much, therefore many people commit crimes such as robbery and others.
In my country it is very difficult to get a job, there are many conditions that make people afraid to do the job, that's why from what I see, many Indonesians choose to work in other countries such as Malaysia, Singapore and others.
