Alert Details & Context
⚠ 100% Price Increases — Basic Commodities & Hygiene
Every shop in these two categories reported rising prices month-on-month. This is the highest signal-strength indicator in the dataset and warrants immediate attention in MPCA targeting criteria.
⚠ Drinking Water — Mixed Delivery Methods
Reported range (0.3–120 New SYP) reflects tap connection vs. commercial tanker delivery. The average 26.4 New SYP/1,000L is calculated on this mixed basis. Recommend standardising measurement to tanker delivery for comparability.
✓ Supply Adequacy — Largely Adequate
~95% of commodities have adequate supply. The crisis is one of affordability, not physical availability — supporting the case for cash-based response over in-kind distribution.
