    GST is here.

    I just received my Astro bill with the GST of 6% added to it. How come there is no big fanfare in the paper? A very quiet new year of the rabbit with a little bite in the bud i guess.

    But if you look at your astro bill, you will notice that the previous bill is without the GST.

    huh?? WHY ah? Y? Y? Y? pray tell me Y?Y?Y?

    Well, if ye bill under a company inbois as a fee, then this fee presumably a consultancy/professional fee, then kena the cukai servis 6% loh, dont play play. If d fella from u-know-where pay to ye own name and u just sign their cash voucher as sales commission, then sumore u declare that as an income, then u dont pay 6% loh..u only have to pay 26% income tax lah!

    You all will continue to get milked till 70% or more decide enough is enough and really do something about it. Till then...just continue to get milked continuously for more unaccountable, unjustifiable and high expenses by the regime, who the heck except us rakyat gonna pay for it all indefinitely. Till then don't complain so much..till 70% or more rakyat decide otherwise very positively.
    Its not about rakyat di dahulukan..its about most rakyat don't give 2 hoots other then their own personal interests and really don't mind selling their souls and their offspring's future for peanuts. PADAN MUKA!...Go Eat CAKE!..

    Look what is on the horizon ...

    When Idris speaks, it is economic gospel to the Ministry of Finance and Budget people... He is gonna sell the idea (no, perhaps I am being too kind)... He is gonna shove it down our throats la... we are lucky that the GE looms near or else the GST would dawn on us tomorrow.

    The GST is an efficient way to tax EVERYBODY instead of the current +/- 15% of the taxable population. Even a 6 year old kid that walks into a toy shop or a bookshop would get taxed.

    Gst is fair provided that the income tax get reduced. That way the malays have to pay some tax instead of the cinapek paying all the taxes.
