Your 10 questions with Datuk Badlisham Ghazali

It seems that MSC status companies may soon have to charge Goods & Services Tax. Doesn't this contravene the Bill of Guarantees which offers competitive incentives such as tax breaks to these companies? Do you think GST will encourage or discourage e-commerce in Malaysia? Peter Chen, Ipoh

GST will not make much of a difference for companies promoting e-commerce businesses as all types of businesses will be required to impose GST on their customers/clients, once enforced by the Government.
