Actually yeah, Malaysian tax rates r damn low compared to places like Australia. Very few rich ppl? I don't see that mentioned anywhere. Where did u see that statement?

There's a difference between tax deduction methods and tax evasion. If its done legally, there's not a single thing that your high ranking tax collector can do either.

Whether you like it or not, it is still a valid reasoning here, comparing Malaysian tax rates to other countries. Why? What else is there to compare to?

Does it matter if a fresh graduate earns less in a year compared to the amount of tax that a rich person pays out? You argument only holds should the fresh graduate need to pay the same 27% tax as well.

Fact is, when it comes down to it, there's far better ways to do tax deduction, of which you had totally ignored.
