Price tags on coffins used for cremation purpose is going up as well. From what used to cost between RM200 to RM300, now it costs between RM300 to RM400.

Another friend commented this on her Facebook:

现在么都起连死都难逃一切劫
(Translation: Everything going for a raise, even die we also can't escape)

All in all, die also not cheap nowadays.

The best thing one can do if we are really poor is not to die, but eating kangkung is a better option.
