my mom sent me a 3kg package from australia. Inside it's just some clothes, some bags she bought for me & my sibblings. The Kastam detained it, n charge me rm50 to send to pos office.

When i arrive at post office, they won't release to me unless i pay rm250 in tax for the package. I WAS LIKE WTF? it stated GIFTS clearly. Why i need to pay tax for gifts send from my mother? and some are not even new!

Aparently my mom didn't cut of the tags on the bags (which is in aud but darn cheap.. 10 or 15 aud) and the KASTAMS charge me rm250 for the whole box!!!!!

my bro explain and explain to them, they don't accept it. The only way is to pay up n they will release the package. DAM MAD!!! so.. in the end we paid up. Even my friend who work b4 in kastam advise me to pay up bcoz it's big package and there is price tags inside.

regret betul...
