QUOTE(PowerSlide @ Dec 4 2025, 04:09 AM) This is the problem with voters. They are more interested in who is the messenger instead of listening to the messages. To these immature voters, if the party they dislike say they have mother, they will object having mother. Strange but true. |

QUOTE(aurora97 @ Dec 4 2025, 04:16 AM) In politics, this is called collective responsibility. If you are a party member, member of a coalition or even a minister for that matter, you will always align with the leadership because when an agenda is proposed, the cabinet has an opportunity to put forward their views to tweak the policy, and when it goes to parliament, members will do further tweaking before it's table for a vote. many immature voters don't realize that, i.e., politicians are opportunists. When the situation requires it, LGE say GST is bad, and brainless people will say GST is bad. Whereas, generally speaking, GST is better than SSTIf after going through such a long and tedious process, every member or minister can make a U-turn or go off tangent and disagree publicly, imagine what kind of government we will have? When a decision is needed, bad or good, there must be a decision. Otherwise, this country will be at a standstill. Also, the standard for those in position, especially ministers, is that if they disagree with a policy of the government, the right way to go about it, is to resign their position. LGE is merely an opportunist in this instance, using Sabah as a vehicle to state SST is bad. |

QUOTE(ameliorate @ Dec 4 2025, 04:49 AM) I've said it before but bear repeating. The problem with GST in Msia is too many exemptions. It's supposed to be fair taxation but they add in so many exclusion become like only certain demographic get punished. Not to mention all those refund issues and money from GST goes to certain accounts only etc. Exemptions given to try to ease the burden of the poor. For example, if you buy eggs and cook it for yourself, no GST. But if you get a restaurant to cook it, got GSTDo it right like Madani with the Budi95 then people will accept. Your ah jib kor talk big like consultant but implementation ke laut. |

QUOTE(ameliorate @ Dec 4 2025, 02:45 PM) If you're gonna do that just stick with sst. Give subsidy for eggs. No need do all this and force sme's to fork out thousands to do compliance and wait for refunds. what about pork or beef or vegetable?Defeats the purpose of gst and just burden everybody. Taking about it now give me nightmares on what we went through. |

Cakap syok je? tax the poor but exempt the rich Padan muka PMX sepenggal And when SST implemented, many prices go up. So Raykat like price reduction or price increase? ![]() |
