Muda slams govt over cancellation of luxury goods tax plan
She further questioned whether the Madani Government's rhetoric on taxing the wealthy was genuine or merely performative. Muda acting president Amira Aisya Abdul Aziz SHAH ALAM - The Malaysian United Democratic Alliance (Muda) has criticised the government's decision to abandon the proposed High-Value Goods Tax (HVGT), calling it a clear sign that the administration is not serious about implementing a fairer fiscal policy for all. Acting president Amira Aisya Abdul Aziz said HVGT would have been a more just taxation mechanism as it targeted only the ultra-rich and focused on items such as watches, luxury handbags, accessories and other high-value goods. 'This is yet another step that shows the hypocrisy of the Madani Government. They once said they wanted to tax the ultra-rich, but the plan to introduce a tax like HVGT has been completely abandoned. 'The Madani Government must remember that they are supposed to defend the common people, not protect the elites. Previously, the government announced that with the introduction of HVGT, it could generate tax revenue of RM700 million. 'What is the government's plan to replace that estimated revenue?,' Amira said in a statement on Wednesday. Muda acting president Amira Aisya Abdul Aziz She further questioned whether the Madani Government's rhetoric on taxing the wealthy was genuine or merely performative. Amira pointed out the government's apparent urgency in expanding the Sales and Services Tax (SST), contrasting it with the lack of commitment in pursuing taxation on luxury consumption. 'If luxury goods have already been included in the expanded scope of the SST, what is the estimated tax revenue the government expects to collect and how does the government intend to classify which revenue comes from luxury goods? 'I believe the government is still confused when it comes to classifying goods under the SST, to the point where even basic necessities are being taxed more, while luxury goods remain untouched,' she said.

Intense competition at WCGC Malaysia qualifier as top golfers eye national final
SHAH ALAM, July 23 — The third qualifying leg of the World Corporate Golf Challenge (WCGC) Malaysia, presented by ENOTECH, was held at the Garden Course of Glenmarie Golf & Country Club yesterday. The event saw a full field of 132 corporate golfers, with Raja Muda of Selangor Tengku Amir Shah Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, the royal patron of WCGC Malaysia, joining the players on the tee. A splash of mid-morning rain threatened to derail proceedings, but the weather cleared, allowing the enthusiastic field to return to action in much enjoyable conditions. The competition was tightly contested, with the top five pairs finishing with the maximum allowable score of 42 Stableford points. These teams will move on to the national final at Kota Permai Golf & Country Club in September. Leading the way were the pairing of Sasi Kumar Subramaniam (4) and Selvan Subramaniam (7) of Cyberlan Integral Sdn Bhd, who received a Cuckoo Inductrio Hybrid Induction Hob each for their efforts. In second place was the team of Gavin Fung (4) and Lim Giin Hoong (9), who each walked home with a Huawei GT5 Pro watch. The Universiti Putra Malaysia pairing of Dr Zailani Khuzaimah (6) and Dr Fadzrul Abbas (8) came in third, receiving each a Fella Design Lazio bench. Fourth place went to the team of Wong Ka Hei (6) and Loh Hung Mun (8) from Paint Bomber Malaysia, who picked up a Bridgestone 24B wedge respectively. Second time proved a charm for the Perwira Global Enterprise partnership of Ahmad Marzuki Kamaruzaman (5) and Tengku Izharudin Tengku Ismail (11), as they made amends for a disappointing showing in the second qualifying round by securing fifth place, walking home in style with a pair of Skechers GoGolf shoes each. The fourth and final qualifying round will take place at Templer Park Country Club on August 21, where five more teams will secure their spots in the national final. The winning pair at the national final will represent Malaysia at the WCGC World Final in Shanghai, China, from October 19 to 23.
