This should have been done to help retail business a decade ago. These ministers are really very lousy in quality.

If you say tax already go and help retail operators, maybe you can say it is fair since it level the playing field.

But our govt has a habit of taking money for any reason, but will not pass the money collected to the one who is on the losing end (in this case retail operator)..

Any classic example is a car/bike/PMD knocked down a person and causing serious and long term injury. Court fine the driver and the money collected to go the state and not a single cent go to the victim. Want money from the driver, victim have to pay from their own pocket to sue themselves, without any assistance from govt.

SMLJ using CCBAI to talk?

GST on these low -value goods will be a "LEVEL playing field"?

Sounds exactly like Fair Framework to promote discrimination against locals, and for this instance against local business.

Why so desperate for money?
