“An example of tax reform is the increase in the service tax rate from six per cent to eight per cent effective from March 1, 2024, which focuses on activities related to discretionary services and activities between businesses ,” Amir Hamzah said during a question and answer session at the Dewan Negara today.He said the increase in service tax does not involve services that are a basic need and part of the people’s lifestyle.
