Combating Inflation: A Shared Responsibility
 

After more than five decades of independence, our nation has seen rapid growth. Yet, beneath the surface of this progress lies a pressing issue—inflation. Prices of goods continue to rise, burdening the people. Inflation occurs when purchasing power increases, leading to higher prices. This is not a matter to be taken lightly, and firm actions must be taken to address it.

The government must consistently organize thrift campaigns nationwide. These efforts should focus on promoting frugal living and discourage wasteful habits. As the saying goes, “Measure the cloth to fit your body”—spending within one's means is essential. Campaigns can be made more engaging through public competitions like essay writing and cultural performances.

Besides government efforts, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like FOMCA and CAP play an important role in protecting consumer rights. They help address issues such as overpricing, expired goods, and hidden charges. These agencies must act decisively and work in unity to safeguard consumers from exploitation.

Enforcement is another key element. Authorities should carry out surprise inspections and take legal action against unethical traders. At the same time, the government must tighten existing laws to prevent price manipulation.

The mass media also holds a critical role. By spreading awareness about consumer rights, the media can empower the public to act against unfair practices. Well-informed consumers are less likely to be taken advantage of and more likely to seek justice when wronged.

In conclusion, tackling inflation requires a united front. Everyone—from the government, NGOs, to individual consumers—must play their part. As the Malay proverb says, *bulat air kerana pembetung, bulat kata kerana muafakat*—unity is strength.
