Johan: Important to implement subsidies correctly


“The priorities for next year will be on implementing subsidies correctly," said Johan.

PETALING JAYA: The government has not made a decision on the reintroduction of the goods and services tax (GST) that was abolished in 2018, says Treasury secretary-general Datuk Johan Mahmood Merican.

The government will remain focused on introducing new measures instead of increasing the country’s tax revenue, according to Johan.
