The increment of the Composite CPI for December 2008 tapered to rise by 6.16% year-on-year to 125.78, the lowest level in 2008. The price indices of Food & Non-Alcoholic Beverages; Health;

and Clothing & Footwear went up by 14.35%, 13.69% and 9.39% respectively.

Among the subgroups of Food & Non-Alcoholic Beverages, notable increase was observed in the prices of rice (+54.83%), canned meat (+40.10%), fresh-water fish (+33.34%), edible oil (+32.38%) and vegetables (+19.28%). For the subgroups of Health; and Clothing & Footwear, charges for medical consultation service and women’s clothings rose by 24.51% and 11.62% respectively.

Meanwhile, the price index of Recreation & Culture recorded a year-on-year increase of 6.05%

due to higher charges for outbound package tours in the Christmas holidays. In spite of higher rentals for housing (+12.51%) and dearer charges for maintenance & repair services of dwelling (+9.60%), reduced prices of LP Gas (-4.65%) and the electricity subsidy provided by the Government slowed down the year-on-year increment of the index of Housing & Fuels to 2.77%.

On the contrary, the indices of Transport and Communication dropped by 8.15% and 6.86%

respectively, attributable to the bus-fare subsidy provided by the Government, falling gasoline prices, lower prices of mobile phones and reduced charges for mobile phone services.

The CPI-A and CPI-B for December 2008 were 128.05 and 125.14 respectively, up by 6.85%

and 5.95% year-on-year.
