KUALA LUMPUR: The Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM) has urged the government to defer the implementation of the expanded sales and service tax (SST) beyond the new date of June 1, 2025, flagging its potential impact on businesses and consumers.

The tax expansion, initially set to take effect on May 1, 2025, was recently postponed by the Royal Malaysian Customs Department to allow for further stakeholder engagement.
