There js always gap between what govt does and what people want.
Today there is no GST in HK because a few yrs ago when they tried to implement there were massive protests.
Hong Kong, CHINA: Protesters display an anti-GST (goods and services tax) banner during a demonstration in Hong Kong, 20 August 2006
GST is a convenient tool for a govt to use. Once we have GST it started at 3% and increased to upcoming 9%. Its like boiling a frog.....Once it's there you just need to turn up the temperature bit by bit.
If you have any doubt why GST is increased ...Read below
These cuts fund the tax cuts and keep taxes low for high income earnings and corporations...in order to subsidise the removal of tax increase for the wealthy in our society GST is raised.
I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

China can Protest, EPIC despite been a " communist country "
this is why their Govt loosen the Covi19 lockdown due to the protest.
Here in SG , LKY is Smart to ban protest , or else now LHL where got SO EASY SUKA SUKA SAY THIS AND THAT no need to worry people protest
So What they want to do etc , We as People Suck thumb CANNOT PROTEST,
EVEN SO CALL Opposition also SUCK THUMB Only just WP alone
NCMP also worthless , Whereas PAP claim is " also alternative voice "
SUMMARY THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CHANGE IS COME GE , AND DO NOTE ONLY 5 YEARS ONCE!
