Higher cost of living a challenge in 2014

Malaysia is expected to face a challenging year ahead in 2014. With the price increase of various items such as toll rates and electricity tariff, Malaysians will need to be more prudent in their daily expenditures.

The lower income group, with a capacity earning of below RM 3,000 is expected to be the hardest hit. The increase has been the subject of conversation with many people of various ages.

How will Malaysians handle the increase? #Awani spoke to the public and FOMCA Secretary General, Datuk Dr Paul Selvaraj to get their view on this pressing issue.
