I HAVE never thought the price of vegetable would affect the politic in one country until I read a news of India today through ST online paper. I have been familiar reading about cooling property market by several governments. Most noticeably it happened in Singapore and China these days. What they said is to protect property bubble that can relate to country's economic and inflation rate. In Singapore, HDB launched its one millionth unit yesterday and the paper made it front news. City state always try to cool property market as they have very limited land resource and they wisely managed by changing policy according to market condition. Some system set up attempted by city state are BTO (Build To Order), Shoebox flat, EC(Executive Condo), etc as well as mortgage manipulation and ownership of foreigner.
On the other hand, India is paying attention on the price soar of onion as it's considered their staple ingredient for local curry. People are really concern about the sky rocket price now 80 rupee per kg from 35 to 40 rupee a kg. To reflect people's voice, the India government suspended the export of onion at least until January or the market become stability whichever is later. Meanwhile the government started to open temporary market to sell onion with wholesale price to its people. What a good government for their people? I really appreciate the way they take measure on taking care of its people.
At the same time, Myanmar local news paper expressed that Myanmar's export income become increase due to strong local currency against US dollar and also citing recent gem sale held at Myanmar's secretive capital, Nay Pyi Daw. The author paste a photo of rice exporting together with his article. The global warming didn't spare to my country and our people suffered from several kind of natural disasters that spoil their farm and well affected their income. Some are helpless and got no idea on returning loan that they took for cultivation. Usually our people need to handle themselves for any incoming troubles regardless of natural or artificial. They have no place to ask for mercy. There is no one to take care of their lives.
We all pay tax so that the government can fill the gap between the rich and poor. We expect our government to do their part in making people's life easier and comfortable. Naturally our people are genial and less demanding despite they are fallen in the deep troubles. Some people can't afford to eat thrice a day due to high price of foods especially rice. Of course, the bad weather destroyed our farm and impact on rice production. Since rice is our staple food, the market demand is much more compare to other foods. It make the price of rice soar. In this stage, why our government keep exporting at the expense of people's starvation? Is dollar much more important than our people's life?
Some countries in the region already ensure the rice reserve enough by buying from exporting country to make sure their people's need is adequate. Why not our government take the same measure while they don't need to buy like others does? Our government can happily earn from other natural resources like natural gas, oil, gems, etc. I don't think they can't afford to suspend the export of food products in search of dollar. They can replace this money from other ways and surely they will be loved by our people. Of course, people will definitely love the government who take care their life. I look forward to read the good news of such positive measure taken by our government leaders sooner than later.
