today I have received a letter from POS malaysia regarding my items order from amazon germany stating that my item detained by customs, so i sign back the letter or authority for appoinment Pos malaysia as a customs agent, for extra rm 50, does it means i need to pay tax?

Bro check back with Amazon. I believe their policy is to calculate and collect import deposit upfront when you place order. If not enough, amazon will absorb the tax costs themselves. If they collect too much they will refund you. I read this somewhere on their website before. Maybe it has changed.

bro, u using standard shipping ? if yes, then confirm u kena tax since hv to assign custom agent. prepare 10%
Maybe i-parcel clearing agent at LCCT screw up? The tax is supposed to be charged back to Amazon.

i-parcel is new to amazon. and it sux

my major shipment now waiting to claim insurance. hahahaa
What happened to your shipment bro? Need to claim insurance? Can't just complain to Amazon and ask them for refund?
Actually I have received some shipments from Amazon using i-parcel even last year. It is a cheaper shipping option and takes longer (ard 2 weeks), but sometimes this option is not available for shipping to Malaysia. Have not experienced any problems with i-parcel so far, other than banged up boxes. Touch wood!
