I would rather government gives cash than CDC Vouchers. There are black market where people sold their $300 CDC voucher at 10% discount for cash. These are the people that are in need of money and not vouchers. They might need it for their medical bills or transportation or things that CDC vouchers cannot do for them. These are the people that government should take good care of them and understand their needs. Or try to understand what matter more to them and not vouchers.

I dislike that supermarket vouchers are in denomination of $10. Why can’t they give it in $5 where it is easier for purchase? Maybe that’s why older folks sold theirs in black market.

I don’t think it is an effective way to combat inflation. I will never be able to enjoy the incentives provided by NTUC eg spending $60 CDC vouchers will receive a $6 NTUC voucher. I hardly spent more than $20 in NTUC - unless I buy a whole salmon which can be $45 and above.
