Alcohol Smuggling Causes RM800 Million Losses In Taxes




MERBOK, Aug 17 (Bernama) -- Alcohol smugglers are short-changing the government to the tune of about RM800 million in taxes annually, and adversely affecting the beer industry in the process.

The loss in taxes was due to loopholes in enforcement, specifically in Malaysia's territorial waters, said Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Donald Lim Siang Chai.

In this aspect, he urged the department to take firm action to rout smuggling activities by upgrading surveillance in areas which were identified as smugglers' routes.

"I hope the presence of the preventive branch base at Tanjung Dawai would deter smuggling activities in the waters off Kedah and Penang," Lim said after visiting the Customs Department Prevention Base and Customs Housing project in Tanjung Dawai here Wednesday.

The RM12.1 million project on a 1.8 hectare site contains a one-story office block and houses for 25 families.

The project was scheduled to have been completed in June, but only 39 per cent was completed.

On the delay in its completion, Lim said the ministry had ordered the contractor to complete the project on Dec 5, adding that the Public Works Department was directed to monitor the project.

According to the deputy minister, the delay was caused by squatter problem and the presence of nine illegal jetties in the area.

Kepada rakyat Malaysia yang hormati,
Suka-lah kita memberitahu bahawa Sami Negera Myamnar kebanyakannya ajaran sesat, banyak permikirannya yang tak betul, main perempuan, tipu wang orang ramai dan lain-lain.

Seorang Myanmar Sami Buddha (VEN. ASHIN INDAKA) bertinggal SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE, NO: 19 JALAN 38 TAMAN DESA JAYA, KEPONG, KUALA LUMPUR, 52100 MALAYSIA (YIP KUM FOOK”MCA GOMBAK” PRESIDENT) yang sama jahat.

Harap orang ramai, khasnya rakyat Malaysia mesti jauhkan sami Myanmar ini. kami harap juga Kerajaan Malaysia lebih mengambil perhatian Sami Buddha yang di upah dari luar Negeri, supaya rakyat Malaysia dan Nagera dapat di selamatkan. Sekian, Terima Kasih

Respect to people of Malaysia,
Likely, we are told that the Myanmar monks mostly false teaching, many impress notions which are not right, play girl, cheating of the public money and others.

Hope all people; especially Malaysians must far away Myanmar's monks. We hope more Malaysia’s Government also noted that the wages of Buddhist monks from the other countries, so that the Malaysian and country can be saved. Thank you

尊敬的马来西亚人民,
我们想告知,缅甸僧侣多半是假的教学,观念是不正确的,玩女人,谎言,欺骗金钱………

缅甸佛教的僧侣 (VEN. ASHIN INDAKA) 住在 SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE, NO: 19 JALAN 38 TAMAN DESA JAYA, KEPONG, KUALA LUMPUR, 52100 MALAYSIA (YIP KUM FOOK ” MCA GOMBAK” PRESIDENT) 同样糟糕。
