Govt to consider reinstating GST if people want it, says PM

PUTRAJAYA will consider bringing back the abolished goods and services tax (GST) to replace the sales and services tax (SST) if it is what the people want, said Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

“If the people want it (GST), we will study whether it is better than the current SST,” he said after launching the Security and Public Order document in Putrajaya today.
