PUTRAJAYA: Petronas today withdrew its appeal against the Kuching High Court’s ruling that Sarawak is entitled to collect sales tax on petroleum products.

A three-man Court of Appeal bench comprising Abdul Karim Abdul Jalil, Hadhariah Syed Ismail and Mohd Sofian Abd Razak struck out the appeal and cross-appeal and ordered each party to bear their own costs. Also appearing for the Sarawak government and the comptroller of SST Sarawak was state attorney-general Talat Mahmood Abdul Rashid.

On March 13, the Kuching High Court ruled that Article 95B of the Federal Constitution provided that the legislature of Sabah and Sarawak might make laws for the imposition of sales tax.
