All smooth sailing as SST commences


Going’s good: A sign displaying the implementation of SST at a supermarket.

PETALING JAYA: It was a smooth transition on the first day of the Sales and Service Tax making a comeback, with no major changes in the prices of goods and essential items.

Businesses faced no problems switching their systems to affect the SST, which was implemented after a three-month tax holiday declared by the Pakatan Harapan government.
