Previously, I talked about the egg price increase in the UAE.
The problem of increasing prices is getting worse now, instead of doing something towards that!
The prices are in continuing rising for the most essential items.
An article published in Gulfnews yeseterday, May 15, 2008, about this tight spot issue, mentioning some examples, like:
- A kilogram of whole local Kanaad fish is sold at Carrefour Dubai for Dh39.90, whereas it was Dh33.90 last month - an increase of Dh6.
- Anchor milk powder, also locally sourced in the UAE, which was Dh59.95 per 2.5 kilogram, is now sold in the market for as high as Dh65.20, which shows a rise of more than Dh5.
- The Lacnor full cream milk (long life) also went up to Dh3.50 per one litre from Dh2.90.
And the list doesn't stop here...
The question which arises itself here: Why is that? And what's the aim?
We need an answer.. because this is related to many important factors, which must be taken into consideration besides the main subject!
From my side, I'm feeling that this subject is not covered and analyzed by media the way and much it needed to.. All the updated articles are just mentioning two main points:
1) Prices are rising again.
2) People can't handle and they're watching their budgets!
So, that's all?
It shouldn't.
