Malaysians To Bear GST Charges On 60 Types Of Food Items Starting July

Customs Department director-general Datuk Subromaniam Tholasy announced today that government will impose Goods and Services Tax (GST) on more than 60 types of food effective this July 1^st.

An official statement from the government will be issued on Monday.

Subromaniam told The Star that the new items that’ll be taxed are “Only a few items not consumed by the masses.”

Among the items said to be taxed are certain seafood, vegetables, fruits, tea, coffee, spices, and noodles.
This includes eel, swordfish, imported fruits such as avocados, figs, grapes, nectarines, cherries and berries.

However, according to The Star, it is reported that several items will also be taken off the GST zero-rated list. The items are potatoes, long beans, peas, spinach, sweet corn, bihun, kuey teow, laksa mee, and coconut oil.

Strangely, the items that’ll be taken off the GST zero-rated list happens to be food that we Malaysians eat regularly.

Guess we’ll have to wait until the official statement is out.
