For now I am aware of the GST increase, but worse to me is the removal of oversea parcel GST exemptions. Before I need not pay GST when buying things $400 or lesser on amazon or taobao but soon it will be real painful.
Are there any other bad things happening in 2023?

China is in the middle of a major health crisis by COVID that surely will impact all supply chains - Recession and potentially losing your job going to be worse than gst increase
- I think it would be a start of a global financial meltdown due to interest rates runaway resulted to a severe gridlock in financial markets. Institutions will not be able to borrow from banks and this is on top of the ongoing stagflation.
- GST is not the worst thing. A lot of Singaporeans will be caught by surprise the recessions that is to come. End Q1 around March is where the economy worldwide will take a dive, there’s already tell-tale signs with the many layoffs that are already happening – more will come.
- Very bad inflation maybe. Just imagine the next baby boom comes after the marriage boom in 2022. Basic necessities become more expensive since there’s gonna be high demand.
- As per usual when its Chinese New year, everything is gonna increase by 30-50 cents.
- Hdb prices increase, supply decrease, mnd and hdb monitoring even more

Additionally, political tensions could increase between different countries, leading to further instability and potential conflict.
