The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November rose by 0.45% compared to the previous month, primarily driven by surging food prices in central provinces and cities directly impacted by post-storm flooding. Additionally, dining out costs increased due to higher input material expenses and rising fuel prices. Over the first eleven months of 2025, the CPI averaged a 3.29% increase year-on-year, while core inflation climbed by 3.21%.
