Highlights:
1. The impact of staple food price changes on the cost of the basic food basket July to September 2015 was severe in Myanmar; moderate in Thailand and low in the remaining countries of the region.
2. Seasonally adjusted rice prices were stable or falling between Q2-2015 and Q3-2015, reflecting good availability and record stock levels in most countries. In Myanmar, prices for low quality rice went up by 23 percent because of the expectation of production shortfalls after the July flood event and the depreciation of the national currency; the ALPS indicator was at crisis levels for rice in Buthidaung, Hakha and Maungdaw.
3. Seasonally adjusted prices for wheat fell in Afghanistan (-5%) and India (-3%) while they remained stable in Nepal (+1%) and Indonesia (+1%); prices for wheat flour also decreased in Bangladesh (-2%), Pakistan (-3%), and Sri Lanka (-3%). In Pakistan, the seasonally adjusted price of sugar continued increasing (+5%) as a result of the doubling of import tariffs in July.
4. During Q3-2015, quarterly prices fell in Afghanistan for diesel (-6.7%) and in Pakistan
for gasoline (-3.3%) and diesel (-2.7%), because of the downward trend of international fuel prices. Q/q fuel prices remained stable in Lao PDR from the previous quarter and were 17 percent cheaper than last year.
