India, June 23 -- Singapore consumer price inflation eased slightly in May to the lowest level in more than four years amid lower food and private transport costs, official data showed Monday.
Consumer prices rose 0.8 percent annually in May, after a stable increase of 0.9 percent in April, the Monetary Authority of Singapore reported. That was in line with expectations.
Further, this was the weakest inflation since February 2021, when prices had risen 0.7 percent.
On a monthly basis, consumer prices climbed 0.7 percent in May.
Similarly, MAS core inflation softened to 0.6 percent from 0.7 percent in April, linked to lower food inflation.
