Its political.

The downside of SST is well known. GST tax everything then manage exempt list. SST have to manage tax list and also an exempt list. Hence SST scope is always smaller than GST. Issue of double tax also higher. SST administrative cost is higher than GST. That's why countries always move from SST to GST.

Bolehland is the only country in the world moving the other direction. Boleh!

coz we can earn more from SST dik..

if wanna raise tax for another certain set of category like Alchohol in future... seeing that alchohol consumption is doing well.. we can raise them to 20%...

without affecting other items...

nothing stopping gov from having GST higher specifically for alcohol or pork or car.

It's just that SST applied at vendor level, not consumer level for most items.
Therefore, 5% SST on your 5 bucks worth of carrot would not be 25 cents. It could be 20 cents only assuming retailer bought from wholesaler/farmer at RM4 for same amount.

That being said...... I still have to pay fucking SST for roti I bought at Hero Market bakery.... but not Hero market supermarket....
padahal they bake in the same place....owned by the same company... just sold at different corners of the same building..... shakehead.gif shakehead.gif
