Out goes GST, in comes all the luxury spending


PETALING JAYA: From renovations to jewellery and even having their own personal trainers, Malay­sians are no longer holding back on their spending with the start of the “tax holiday” today.

From today, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) has been zero-­rated. It will be replaced with the Sales and Services Tax (SST) from Sept 1.
