30 percent of mamak restaurants have raised food prices despite zero GST

PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): 30 percent of mamak restaurants are still raising their food prices even though the Goods and Services Tax (GST) has been zero rated since June 1, says the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry.

Its minister Datuk Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said the percentage was obtained by comparing food prices at the premises before and after the implementation of the zero-rated GST.
