KOTA KINABALU: Amendments to the Sabah State Sales Tax Enactment 1998 are expected to strengthen the implementation and collection of the state’s sales tax.

State Attorney-General Datuk Brenndon Keith Soh said the current law brings in nearly half of Sabah’s yearly income, and the changes would boost the collection.
