[pict sourced fr Google Image (used w apologies)]It has recently caught my attention, 2 consecutive letters to the press to which the government has scan answered I believe.
The first is by Mr Chin Kee Thou 'Double tax for water use not fair' (My paper,05Sept2011) in which he pertinently states: "The water-conservation tax is levied as a deterrent or penalty against excessive use and wastage of water, and is similar to a fine for traffic offences.
The conservation tax and traffic fine are neither goods nor services, and the latter is not subject to GST.
