I just came back from Melbourne recently. If you eat in the city, on Sat the surcharge is 10% , then GST 10% and credit card fee (many using cash now, going backwards) is around 1.5% to 2%. On Sunday, the surcharge is 15%, all in you pay 22% to 27% just in surcharges. But if you go the suburbs, some outlets offer 5% discount if you pay cash and no weekend surcharges. Restaurants in the city are be big boys' businesses.

They depend on KEBAJIKAN to feed them from cradle to grave and it is that way only for the privileged.

Our dear PMX seems like does not know the maths, expect nothing should increase with diesel hike...if like that, the businesses that use diesel can survive with RM200 subsidy only? If you use RM400 per month, mcm ini boleh kah sekalian?
