"The government intends to impose the tax to those taking flights from Malaysia. That is what we intend to do for now," said Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Amiruddin Hamzah when wrapping up his debate.Several lawmakers had expressed their concerns about the Bill's wording as it did not specify the word"flying".
"If the matter is brought to court then it is dangerous as the Bill is broad. Now the Deputy Minister is saying that the levy is only for those who fly out," he said. To this, Amiruddin said that the government intended to have the Bill as broad as possible so it would be easier for the government in the future to include provisions and clauses to it.
"Let's say in the future the government, for some reason, decides to impose the departure levy on cruise lines.We already have this Bill as a reference and there will not be a need to bring in a fresh new Bill for that purpose," said Amiruddin.
'Tax only for those flying out of the country' what a stupid statement. Those that don't fly out of the country don't pay departure tax. if you are not human and you are a bird flying out of the country you don't have to pay the departure tax. haha. Come on use your coconuts!
