What are not taxable?

"The provisions will only affect gains that are “income” in nature. On this note, foreign source gains that are “capital” in nature will not be subject to tax. Foreign source capital gains should include proceeds from the disposal of foreign stocks, foreign properties, foreign assets, foreign currencies, foreign investment papers, etc, if these assets had been held as long-term investments. "

Googled and found this,...
"Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) pay out the full dividend that comes with the stocks held within the funds. To do this, most ETFs pay out dividends quarterly by holding all of the dividends paid by underlying stocks during the quarter and then paying them to shareholders on a pro-rata basis. They are typically paid either in cash or in the form of additional shares of the ETF."

Do ETFs pay dividends?
Most ETFs pay dividends to their fund holders either half yearly or yearly. You are advised to refer to the distribution policy in the prospectus or offering document of the ETF.
