Taiwan's high consumers prices remain a concern

While Taiwan's latest official monthly inflation figures are expected to show little change, high prices remain a concern in the country, reports the BBC's Cindy Sui.

With the government reducing subsidies on electricity and petrol prices earlier this year, many households are feeling the pinch.

This is especially the case because when the cost of living is factored in, average wages have increased only 0.1% over the past year, way below the inflation rate of roughly 1.8%.
