munkkey,

Those who seldom travel overseas only realise the elevated living costs when stepping out of the Malaysian bubble. That also applies to most Hajj applicants, who are on a waiting list and when it’s their turn, suddenly find themselves paying much more than they initially thought.

munkkey,

They should mess with the pigeons, though. /s

munkkey,

Adjustment is indeed long overdue. I have been paying the minimum amount in Penang for god knows how long.

munkkey,

Tangentially relevant, someone renamed a Ditto holding the item Eject Button as SUS.

munkkey,

Yeah la, selfishly blocking common corridor. Got alternative path isn’t a good reason; it’s a fire hazard in case of emergency.

munkkey,

Checkmate. Jump off the building to survive… or game over.

munkkey,

I also wonder about our fellow Malay diet nowadays. How much has changed as we transition to modern lifestyle, and how much they keep to their traditional recipes?

munkkey,

Wah, so “healthy”. If that’s what their wallet can afford I dunno what else to say.

munkkey,

Can’t find the article now. It’s rare that FMT retract or retitle the story.

munkkey,

It’s not the end, though. We shall see if the Federal Court want to take the Islamic Council’s case to potentially overturn the High Court of Appeal decision.

munkkey,

Both sides are going to the court to get what they want, basically. The mother appealing for the unilateral conversion ruling, and the Islamic council wanting to have access to the children.

munkkey,

I wish the country well.

Sigh, me too.

munkkey,

On the 8% service tax though:

The 2% hike in service tax rate applies to all taxable services (except for telco, food & beverage (F&B), parking and logistics) and expansion of scope to include logistics, brokerage, underwriting and karaoke services. (source)

So logistics previously did not require service tax, but will be taxed 6% come this March. And why do I come across reports that TCM will be more expensive because of this?

munkkey,

Yup, but just now I found this rather recent article, saying the hike should not have a big effect to shops selling TCM, or even their consultation services, since most of them don’t have the revenue (500k per year) to require SST collection.

Their medicines are expensive not because of tax (in fact TCM is zero-rated), but due to our weak currency and lack of practitioners.

munkkey,

It’s easier to track the “underground economy” with GST or e-invoicing. Some shady businesses might have closed because Customs and IRB are involved in the GST system. Since we can’t touch GST now, this govt plan to introduce e-invoice in stages, which should have a similar effect.

munkkey,

I’m guessing most of the new restaurants will be in Sabah and Sarawak. To those who think “that’s gonna make our diabetes problem worse”, well, given the smaller portions and yet pricey meals, I don’t think people are over-indulging on McD food.

munkkey,

The blurb/first paragraph summarizes the issue well. Archive.today does not have the full article saved, but it’s okay.

munkkey,

Harap2 begitulah. Anwar dan kabinet beliau pun kena berusaha keras perbaiki persepsi rakyat terhadap mereka.
