Finance Ministry says no plans to reintroduce GST for now


KUALA LUMPUR: There are no plans to reintroduce the Goods and Services Tax (GST) anytime soon in order to protect the interests of the people and businesses, says the Finance Ministry.

The ministry said this is because the current general income level is too low, leaving people financially vulnerable if subjected to a broad-based tax like GST.
