i never said it's right thing to do. but people need to point out the actual problem and raise the correct issues.

before pos malaysia charge min 250-500gram flat rate, you can also argue that it is unfair since you only send 50gram and have to pay for 250gram rate.

it's a private company, they can decide their charging rates, and if it's really uncompetitive people will switch courier service, or competitors will take this opportunity to gain competitiveness.

but chances are it'd be like Perodua/Proton case, even if they increase their price they are still the cheapest courier service provider so even if you complain you'd still end up using them as your courier.

that is what happens when consumer buying power is less.

macam tiada orang rant je... 

so instead of chasing each person with LHDN for not declaring income tax on online sales, they gouge them with shipping fees.

Get the customer to cover the shipping la

u dont do online biz u don't know, some people sell stuff from MY to US or other countries

b4 the shipping rate is cheap, but now pos malaysia farked them by using flat rate 1kg fees, even the item is just 100g

china seller sell <$10 with free shipping, how to compete?

next; gst and oil price hike lets see how normal people will react?

you rite ,
but in some situation like your example, we will absord the cost as still have profit although drop a little bit more ,
now the situation is even worst ,tak ada untung mau lagi rugi besar o.

they aint cheap now. thats why i pop my anger here ...
small potato i can telan , now kasi coconut besar mau mati lo

maybe it's time for your business to change? so instead of selling light weight items you can focus your products on heavier ones so you gain maximum advantage over the new min 1kg charging rate?

or do bulk offers like buy 5 get 1 free so you actually sending 1kg per shipment instead of 250gram?

how bout domestic rate? any hike?

thats is what of us figure now. how to make our buyer feel comfortable.
very tough to change entire direction ....  need time figure out..

well you are online seller?  gambahteh

inb4 "other country rates are still higher than this, bersyukurlah"

no i'm online buyer so less effected. have some stuff wanna let go now wanna relook at my "free international shipping" policy lol.

so what you selling? must be small items. Jewels? Accessories? Condoms???

anyway even if Malaysia post is free, it's quite hard for Malaysians to compete internationally.

import goods need tax
goods imported need to pay more to distributor
goods also left over

how to compete with China, Hong Kong when they can get their stuff dirt cheap?

POS Malaysia previously offering the cheapest courier option among other courier.
