ReplyDeleteStill a tax payer. GST, property tax...just no more income tax
ReplyDeleteTrue.
DeleteMy tax free day (personal income tax) will come in 2019. :)
ReplyDelete:-)
DeleteWith more & more people on gig jobs (whether forced or voluntary), more are now income-tax-free.
ReplyDeleteAnd minister complained they are missing out on GST too, with so many online transactions.
Hopefully don't implement capital gains tax to make up difference! :O
If I'm politician, I'd implement CGT over increasing GST.
More politically acceptable -- but bad for us! :(
Good...
ReplyDeletePersonal tax ended but still has regular income flow in. :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha never say never... GST makes us less attractive as financial centre compared to HK, but we did it anyway. The govt calculated that it is lesser of 2 evils as compared to raising personal income and/or corporate income taxes. When you need the money, you need the money --- no choice have to get from somewhere.
ReplyDeleteS'pore removed Estate Duty in 2008 mainly in response to HK removing it in 2006. Of course conspiracy theorists like to say also becoz of a certain very rich & very powerful wife going into coma.
Now with HK ruled by Beijing, if it implements CGT, then don't be surprised for SG to follow. Especially as over the next 30 years, govt revenue is projected to grow much slower than govt expenditure e.g. aging population, mature economy.
Like that, many of us will open foreign brokerage accounts liao. Hahaha!!
