MCMC: Impossible to revert prepaid reloads to pre-GST prices immediately


CYBERJAYA: It will be impossible to bring down prices of prepaid reloads to pre-GST (Goods and Service Tax) levels immediately, due to the huge logistics involved in implementing the change, said the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC).

For now, prices of RM10 prepaid reloads will remain at RM10.60, with 6% GST applied, clarified MCMC chairman Datuk Sri Dr Halim Shafie (pic).
