KUALA LUMPUR: The government is looking at alternatives to a wealth tax, including a Goods and Services Tax (GST), to raise funds for its coffers, says Deputy Finance Minister II Mohd Shahar Abdullah.

"On a wealth tax, the government has no intention at all to implement it at the present moment," he said when answering Wong Shu Qui in the Dewan Rakyat on Thursday .

"The study will also cover the effects on the economy, cost of living and the cost of goods, including the black economy," he added. Shahar also noted that although the nation's gross domestic product shrank by 17% in the second quarter of this year, there are positive indicators that the economy would recover and grow by between 5.5% and 6% in 2021.
