Avocado still subject to luxury item tax?

there's no locally produced apple

so now have to change to eat what fruit?

Durian lo, tons of it. Have fun

A durian a day, keeps everyone away.

Avocados also locally have liao

Belimbing / star fruit?

Too much consumption can be deadly though.

We local got dragon fruit, but also import alot china one

Got. Ba kelalan there. Can go there n pick apples n watch people make land salt.

Salawak banyak but different shape
. Taste the same only.

our dragon fruit very hard to beat china and vietnam in terms of price

the thing is, last time got charge? ini la Amerikunt cakap tarif dlm selimut

salak

I did not vote for this

All k trumpet supporters should come support, sama konsep dgn tariff trumpet

Many types of common fruits are imported, they were never luxury item unless govt decided that b40 should no longer be able to afford them.

Makan la je longkong langsat rambutan
Lol pathetic 2025 can think of nothing except taxable income stream and populist agendas

No problem. Just stand there eat samples enough.

Makan mango and durian

I am going to be realistic here, you can find almost no local fruit in your usual supermarket like Lotus because local fruit for some reason almost always sell much more expensive than imported option.

Banana usually imported from Philipines.

Mango, pineapple usually imported from Thailand.

Dragon fruit is from Vietnam.

Apple, orange don't even need to mention is 100% imported.

So what can the people buy that is SST free?

yup, now this makes us looked like america instead....suddenly got tariff on fruit

Eating fruits are not part of our culture. Having a daily ton of refined sugar and carbo is.

The accessible fruits like orange apple pears also want tax ?


Clap clap madanon

i tau u suka pancut dlm mia.

Madani: Apple, Orange, Pear and etc are luxury fruits.

Half pass six implementation.

Can try those FAMA stalls if there are some near your place. Hopefully will be cheaper, and you can also support our local farmers.



Not all fruit are imported, there are local variants eg bananas, papayas, watermelon, mangos, pomelos, manggis, cempedak, durian, pineapples, etc

What's the point...

Local production is just not enough to support consumption.

Now local fruits are also going to be expensive AF because of increased demand.

Amen amen amen , almost all fruit i know are import …

Protect local

I need Najib back woi, fker Bapa DNAA + Bapa Cukai kept ruining things, we Malaysians are overtaxed

Rokek want Rakyat to eat less fruits

#BebasNajib
#NajibForPMXI

Dah dah, nanti bagi u Sara beli local fruits

Yes. Either pluck the grape and peel its skin OR can bring it over to the seafood section, there got tap to wash..

eat jiku and setar peruit jer la...

We r too occupied with oil palm. We even neglected our staple, rice 😂

It was jibbai to start the shit of gst

Dah la local fruits more expensive than imported fruits.
This probably put them on par je
Local fruit price no control

B40 should only eat local fruits.

6% extra and you can’t afford? lol. Stop over exaggerating things bruh.

Apple, orange are imported fruits as Malaysia can't grow it. So now B40 can no longer effort to buy it as it subject to 5% SST. Madani boleh

Can eat Durian , buah long long, rambutan, cempadak, Jambi Air, strawberry, passion fruit, bananas, abiu, ....

Just no grapes, no red ruby, no Kiwis, no China, no Japan, Korean Australia and new Zealand fruits.

Probably US fruit cannot tax...later kena tariff

limau amacam

how much tax also this won't come in

Why fruit, good for health oso need tax kaw kaw?

The fruit tax add it to the lobster, oyster, abalone, caviar, wagyu lar 😁

Local fruits can be more expensive than imported fruit, global trade is the norm. Only crazy thought import = luxury in modern day.

Payaya la, sihat & longgar.

Taxing on basic necessities is just stupid

Brainless government.

We are self sufficient meh?

Malaysia imports most of its agriculture produce.

Lol clueless gomen

Pisang goreng will be premium product soon

CNY lokan rip in advance....

Hike 5% sst already make noise. lel

Its quite silly to tax fruits la. The government should encourge people to eat more healthy and give tax exemption for healthier food stuff like fruits, not tax them. Instead, the government gives subsidy for sugar and cooking oil, all of which the health ministry campagins to kurang gula and kurang makanan goreng. And you wonder why we are an obese nation.

Its like reading la. Mahathir had his flaws but when he gave tax exemptions for books, there was an increase in people buying and reading books, at least in my circles. People would go buy books claim for tax. Even Najib's book voucher was benefical in some way. And this government decided to give it to teachers this year instead of student, alasan tak ada duit. Tapi ada duit untuk benda lain.

Its going to end up like the beras issue where local rice is stamped as import rice to sell it at higher price.

Honestly, I dont know what this government is doing. Getting priorities wrong and giving excuses for everything.

Oren and Apple cannot plant in bolehland , so both casualties…

Tons of fruit not able to plant here , semua import kenal..Lolx

i know that.

the new sst came in multi tier. the normal 6% one not meant for luxury. luxury item 10%.

Banana,pineapple and rambutan


So durian have tax?

Sabah got.

But kurma Arab would be exempted...

Omg king crab wil cost additional 5% due t sales tax.

i am here to remind everyone !

HAHAHAHAHAH , nice ! another reference

So those cheap langsat mango mata kucing From Thailand no longer cheap???

Maybe mango di supermarket pun kena. Import from Thai.

He is condemning something that he did best when he was numba-man!

They will say every rm10 just 50 sen only kek and it’s paid on import cost price not selling price so for consumer should be less than 5% actual impact

#doneplotek

Imported ayam

Habis 2feidei

I will not vote for this again

habis. malaysa import a lot of fruit and vege because not grown here

Most clueless cabinet, no structure reform but keep taxing

We soon MAY see ppl peeling bananas, placing them in plastic bags then only go weigh its price..

Then Malaysia export ke Thai

We all kena

Local fruits:
1. Pomelo - Sabah, Tapah, Johor
2. Mango
3. Nangka
4. Cempedak
5. Banana
6. Durian
7. Rambutan
8. Mangosteen
9. Duku/Duku Langsat/Langsat/Dokong
10. Dragonfruit
11. Strawberry
12. Papaya

Production amount is low, though. Weight for weight, probably more expensive than imported fruits.

Buah bidara

they don't want our mango...either inferior to theirs or too expensive or both

mostly i see is import

PineApple kan ada.

apple orange are not essentials?

tax cigarette and alcohol more la. why tax fruits.

Guava

+1

Makan pisang berangan.

Makan mangoes grown in Setiawan.

Makan rambutan.

Makan mangosteen.

Makan MUSANG KING.

When people start switching to local fruits, the prices of local fruits will skyrocket. Then, many people will start reducing their fruit intake. As it is, I think many are already not eating enough fruits.

Not going to be a good outcome.

My fav, haven't drop dead yet, which means my kidneys are safe

Err.... I have visited these stalls before.
Not all are local. They sell mixture of locals & imported fruits especially those from Thailand.
Their best sellers & best profits comes from selling Thailand fruits.

Malaysian don't view orchard farms as a good career prospects.
And Msia gomen support is no where near Thai gomen support & development.
Example : Harum Manis. - Too expensive, too many fakes/low quality. Doesn't have the consistency quality and quantity of Thai mangoes.

Some from Cameron Highlands

Yes. The best time to sell local fruits at imported prices is coming..

some is like 10-20% only

ma fren took me to one of these places near his house before. mostly local fruits I think, cannot see any apples/oranges/grapes. I didn't ask the seller, don't know if they imported the fruits.

edit: many years back, don't even remember why we went there lol

+1 correct!

Local fruits

Watermelon
Banana
Papaya
Star fruit
Mango

Seasonal

Rambutan
Mangosteen

Why Malaysians like to angkat amdk fruits like apple? White supremacy

how often do you even buy and/or consume local fruits?

99% of the times dragon fruit taste like tap water mix with soil

Banana all the time
I don’t buy Apple. It’s weird why households here have taste for Apple when it’s a cold weather fruit

Btw the more important issue is that we dont eat enough vegetables. Vegetables are more important than fruit. Too much fruit is actually too much sugar
