‘Travel ban is for stubborn defaulters’


KUALA LUMPUR: The Inland Revenue Board will not immediately penalise small-time tax defaulters, reassured Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Chua Tee Yong.

Responding to The Star’s news report yesterday on how the board would act to bar tax defaulters from leaving the country, Chua said the move was neither aggressive nor intended to create panic.
