economy - Rising prices: 15 percent

Ajinsen restaurant

Restaurants often use Springfestival to raise their prices, but from the menu in my favorite Ajinsen restaurant in Xujiahui I deducted that the 15 percent increase was there to stay. Still a rather affordable place, but a sign that inflation is around us. Still amazing to see this token of Japanese efficiency in the middle of Shanghai.
A Chinabiz we change our original poll, asking whether you saw signs of inflation soon when we discovered inflations was so much a fact. So, now we ask whether your employer has compensated you for inflation. Slightly more than half says they were compensated.
