Levied by the Sarawak goverment. Our current economy situation is in a period of recession as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and the Sarawak goverment should minimise the collection of external taxes from the public so as to assist the public to reduce their economy burden. Thus, it hopes that Sarawak government can consider to abolish the collection of the said 5% sales tax on the imported tyres.
Furthermore, if the Sarawak government is unable to abolish the collection of the said 5% sales tax on the imported tyres, I wihs to appeal to Sarawak government that, at least, provide some exemption to the motorcycle tyres or users. We understand that most motorcycle users are B40 families and an increment of 5% on the price of the tyres will create an additional burden or hardship to them, Therefore, the tax exemption to the motorcycle tyres or users can help to reduce the economy burden of the B40 families.
