Anwar: GST again only after incomes rise


PETALING JAYA: The Goods and Services Tax (GST) will only be re-introduced once Malaysia’s minimum wage levels rise to a higher threshold, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (pic).

The Prime Minister said that the GST would be brought back once the minimum wage reaches between RM3,000 and RM4,000 per month. (Currently, the minimum wage is RM1,500.)
