This decrease in prices is mainly due to the decline in the prices of transport (-3.1% after +4.0% in the previous month) as well as clothing and footwear (-0.4% after +0.2% in the previous month). Conversely, the prices of food products (+0.8% after -0.2% in the previous month), housing, water, gas, electricity and other fuels (+0.4% after stability in the previous month) as well as leisure and culture (+0.2% after +1.7% in the previous month) increased over one month.<x id=\"gid_1\"><\/x>Compared to the same period in 2019, the general price level increased in May 2020 by 2.3%, after +2.6% last month. This increase is largely due to the increase in the prices of food products (+4.7% after +4.0% the previous month), alcoholic beverages, tobacco and narcotics (+3.2% after +3.4% the previous month), transport (+2.9% after +6.4% the previous month) as well as leisure and culture (+2.7% after 2.5% last month).<br \/>\nOn average over the last twelve months, the general price level has increased at the same pace since September 2019, i.e. 2.4%. The inflation observed this month is largely due to the increase in the prices of food products (+4.6% as in the previous month), miscellaneous goods and services (+3.9% after +4.2% last month), restaurants and hotels (+3.0% after +3.4% the previous month), alcoholic beverages, tobacco and narcotics (+4.4% after +4.7% last month), as well as clothing and footwear (+3.1% after +3.3% last month).<br \/>\nThe core inflation rate1 stands at 2.0%. The inflationary pressures observed in Douala were therefore not only maintained by fresh products (+6.7%). Energy prices fell by 4.0%. In addition, the prices of imported goods increased by 2.3% and those of local products by 2.4%.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","format":[626],"meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"annee":[],"region":[],"domaines":[],"class_list":["post-17109","statistique","type-statistique","status-publish","hentry","format-data"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique\/17109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/statistique"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/statistique\/17109\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"annee","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/annee?post=17109"},{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=17109"},{"taxonomy":"format","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/format?post=17109"},{"taxonomy":"domaine","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ins-cameroun.cm\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/domaines?post=17109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
