IT appears that the concerted anti-software piracy campaigns, carried out by the Ministry of Domestic Trade And Consumer Affairs, are bearing fruit, albeit slowly. According to figures released by the third annual Business Software Alliance (BSA) and IDC Global Software Piracy study, Malaysia's software piracy rate recorded a reduction of one percentage point to 60%.

What's happening with the Goods & Services Tax in Malaysia? Are we any closer to implementing it? WHERE are we at with the elusive Goods & Services Tax (GST) in Malaysia? The much-talked about GST has been toyed with for many years now, the idea having first taken root in the 1993 Budget when the-then Finance Minister announced the impending introduction of a Sales and Service Tax (SST). Following this announcement, SST did not materialise, and many years later, it made a re-appearance in the form of the GST in the 2005 Budget proposals, and was to have been introduced with effect from Jan 1, 2007.
