@singapore what is the corporate tax rate on Singapore as well as the individual tax rate?

h_ramus,

Corporate tax at 17% albeit large companies can negotiate to bring it down. Global minimum tax rolled out in 2024 will act as a floor at 15% now.

Income tax, as usual, is based on income brackets. GST is 9%. www.iras.gov.sg/…/individual-income-tax-rates

For reference, Dubai’s corporate tax was 9% but global minimum tax will have the same effect of setting a 15% floor.

Income tax is zero and 5% VAT/GST.

geoffpetty,

Why is a very rich country like Singapore doing so badly in decarbonising. They should be ahead of the game.

Corpos, friend. They follow money, not ethics. And rich people in Singapore tend to be corpos (as in every other country).

If Singapore has the will, there are safe ways to get a nuclear power plant operating in Singapore. I wouldn’t trust a commercial entity to do it, and I would rather that it is built as a state-owned, state-run government facility.

Singapore paying other nations to produce electricity that is clean is just like automotive clean energy credits all over again. There’s nothing to it but penalty and Singapore should be better off building the nuclear power plant or investing in more clean energy solutions.

Anyways, we are in a geographically stable area far from earthquake zones. If we dig deep enough, we might be able to get geothermal working. But it might not be economical.

alwynispat,

@singapore Do those spam (robotic) calls pay when we pick up the call?

alwynispat,

@unkerplus65 @singapore well not all the time. But international calls get the lowest priority. 😂

I remember that unknown (SG) numbers should only have 8 digits on caller ID, and spoofed spammer numbers have a +65 in front. I just avoid picking those up.

Not much we can do about overseas numbers, I just don’t pick up unless it’s an expected call with an agreed time
