What happened to RM1?

Was feeling so the hungry when I woke up today so I stopped by the road side to get a packet nasi lemak on the way to work. I bought the same bungkus type last week near office which cost RM1.10 so I thought it would be cheaper to get it in Klang (since Klang is so "kampung" compared to Damansara). But to my surprise, when I asked the mak cik "how much?", she answered me RM1.20!! What?? How can this be?

What happened to the "nasi lemak satu ringgit" Malaysia is famous for? It even used to be 80/90 sen for one bungkus in some places not too long ago. And don't give me the excuse of petrol hike. Do your hands run on petrol to bungkus these nasi lemaks? Kena con I tell you... we are all conned!!
"nasi lemak satu ringgit dua puluh sen"
doesn't even sound catchy. Hmmph!
