NSTnation No current plan to bring back GST, says Dr M

He pointed out that his previous statement on GST has been taken out of context leading to the assumption that the government would consider bringing back the tax regime.“I answered if this is the request of the people, and as we are sensitive to the wishes of the people, we will study .

“No study has been carried out, and since I made the statement, there has yet to be a presidential council meeting,” he told reporters at the Parliament lobby here today. On Thursday, Dr Mahathir was reported as saying that the government would consider studying the re-introduction of the GST if the people believed it to be better than the current Sales and Services Tax .

However, Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng in response to this said there must first be"incontrovertible" evidence that the people wanted GST back.

GST should not be reintroduced, impose CGT insteadLETTER | A capital gains tax can be an alternative in place of GST Promised should not be introduced, throw them instead. The first thing the despot Mahathir chedetofficial did after getting appointed as PM was to abolish GST. Then why is Mahathir bringing back GST style tax methods. Who are the idiots who are advising Mahathir about these tax reforms? PH people or Deep State goons? What a stupid idea! People who work hard get taxed more and risk having them migrate. Share market already in shambles. Tax on gains will further suppress the KLSE. Bodoh!!!
