Talkback Thursday: How can we have the service we want if we don't pay the taxes?

The tax revenue base of Malaysia is extremely narrow. The 2012/2013 Economic Report states that only 11% of registered companies and 14.8% of employees pay income taxes.

Just let that sink in for a moment.

In other words, 89% of registered companies don't pay income tax, and 85.2% of employees don't pay income tax.

We want a world class country, we want world class services, but why aren't we willing to pay for it? Our lines wereClass open.
