KOTA KINABALU: Sabah will now only charge a 10% sales tax on scrap metals exported out of the state, said state Industrial Development and Entrepreneurship Minister Phoong Jin Zhe.
This was due to opposition by scrap metal dealers on the imposition of the previous RM200 per tonne metric state sales tax for scrap metal exports which amounted to some 13% on the current scrap metal market price.
