With the change of the new ruling party comes the promised removal of the Goods & Service Tax (GST), which caused a major outcry and may have been the main cause for the recent election results going the way it did. Anyway, an announcement was made recently that GST would be zero rated (0%) with effect 1st June 2018 before any reversal to the Sales & Service Tax format are made. In conjunction with this Proton has decided to offer an interim pricing scheme to ensure that their customers, both new car sales and also after sales, will benefit from the change.

Post GST - Most brand new cars are cheaper. And recipe for homemade Latte

Today my family and I shopped for groceries at Jaya Grocer over at the Empire Gallery in Subang Jaya. Out of the RM100.00 we spent rm4.00 was GST (RM67.59 was GST applicable, the rest zero GST). So GST has basically cost us either half a Beijing Cabbage or almost ten raw eggs or a can of Campbell's mushroom soup. Not much, but since we usually shop for groceries at least once a week there is a slight increase in our household spending. Boo-hoo.
