For me it is Transportation, Housing and the Rising Cost of living. Transportation is tops because the government screws up by loading the population up without investing in infrastructure. Now it is playing catchup in building up more MRT lines and buses and roads. That's why we all have to suffer the road works and creaking MRT systems for years to come. They are also targeting cars now since there are too much demand for cars and the new road capacity has not come on stream yet. But the root cause is the sheer increase in Population which causes the demand. Same with Housing, the sheer demand has cause prices to shoot through the roof. The government has to play catchup with building more flats and releasing more land. Needless to say Cost of living has shot up accordingly.
