PETALING JAYA: Education leaders are urging the government to reconsider its decision to impose the 6% Sales and Service Tax (SST) on waived fees and scholarships in private and international schools, warning that it is unfair and could harm Malaysia’s standing as an education hub.
National Association of Private Educational Institutions deputy president Dr Teh Choon Jin described the move as “illogical and unfair”, as it taxes amounts that students do not actually pay.
