Warisan: 7.5% palm oil sales tax a burden on smallholders


KOTA KINABALU: The sales tax of 7.5% on palm oil should be reduced as it is a burden on smallholders in Sabah, especially at a time when they are unable to maximise profits, says Parti Warisan deputy president Datuk Darell Leiking (pic).

He said the state government must “review, enhance and manage” the palm oil industry properly to ensure it would benefit Sabahans directly.
