Good news?

On Saturday, it was announced by the country's Communications Minister that the Prime Minister would announce some good news on food items soon. The announcement duly came on Sunday. Anwar Ibrahim proclaimed that the prices of Grades A, B and C eggs would be reduced by three cents each with immediate effect.

Today, I decided to go for a char koay teow breakfast at my favourite joint in Bukit Mertajam. I had expected my delicious plate to cost me RM5.97 now but instead, the blardy hawker had rounded the price up to RM6 instead of rounding it down to RM5.95. So what good news was the fella talking about?? How does it affect the ordinary man-in-the-street?
