It is so sure BN will win, PM, please call election faster so that stock market is not affected.

Most investors are suffering, can afford only porridge for the last few months.

Other worldwide markets are bullish except Malaysia. One of the worst markets in Asia.

Thank you.

Cuts in duties for cars from Japan, Australia imminent

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 27 — Putrajaya will announce a cut in car duties from Japan and Australia tomorrow, which would mean zero duties after three years similar to cars from Asean nations.

The Star Online quoted Minister for International Trade and Industry, Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed, as saying today that the reduction would span three years for car models originating from the two countries.

He declined to elaborate further and told the news portal that more details would be released tomorrow.

Malaysia exports Proton cars to Australia now, but does not import many vehicles from the Commonwealth country.

The Malaysian Insider understands that under the Malaysia-Australia Free Trade Agreement (FTA) which came into effect on January 1, Putrajaya has committed to cut duties from 15 per cent in 2013 to 10 per cent in 2014 and 5 per cent in 2015 with zero duties in 2016.

The Edge, meanwhile, reported that the move is seen as a response to Pakatan Rakyat’s promise to make cars cheaper through the reduction of various car taxes as stated in their election manifesto.

Malaysia is also a signatory to the Asean Free Trade Area (AFTA) agreement, which will liberalise the automotive industry by the end of 2015 through the removal of taxes on vehicles with at least 40 per cent Asean regional value content.


......but still high...why?


Read please...

Lets not get too excited at this attempted theft if a PR policy.

Lets see what is announced tomorrow.

The problem is not just import duties.

The corrupt Approved Permits issued to UMNO cronies is also a major cost as are the excise duties at between 75%-105% of the cost if the vehicle and the 10% sales tax.

A high end BMW 5 Series sells in Europe for RM190,000 before tax, a less well specified BMW 5 Series sells in KL for RM 598,800. The Rakyat pays over RM400,000 on a new BMW to UMNO Cronies and in Tax.

Remove all APs and open the market up to free enterprise. An entrepreneur could import the cars, still pay the same levels of tax to the government and be able to sell BMWs for about RM100,000 less than today. Obviously it would be nice to see taxes reduced too, but lets open this market up first and remove this cancerous non-productive tax (UMNO rent) on society that only benefits umno cronies.

The Calculation

BMW 5 Series configured with high specifications retails at RM190,000 in Europe before tax, obviously the cost price to the dealer is less.....

Shipping RM3000
Insurance during shipping RM1000

Customs Value (RM190,000+RM3000+RM1000 = RM194,000)

Import Duty RM194,000 x 30% = RM58,200

Excise Duty RM194,000 x105% = RM203,700

Sales Tax @10% x (RM194,000+RM58,200+RM203,700 = RM455,900) = RM45,590

Total RM501,490

AP Costs (given to cronies for free) and added to the end consumer as rent = RM97,310

BMW sold in Malaysia for a Grand Total RM598,800

16% of the cost of a new car is UMNO rent money

Lets reduce car costs from allcountriesof the world but keep the tax money rolling into the treasury simply by voting UMNO out of power.



.....so how much is UMNO cronies getting?????


Thank You Pakatan Rakyat! BN is now copying your manifesto and we can expect lower car prices to be announce tomorrow!


This lousy does noting at all & so high car taxes where a BRAND NEW Toyota Camry 2.4 cost RM70k in U.S. now cost RM160k in Malaysia....DAMN THIS UMNO!!!!

Still want to vote for BN / UMNO????????

This Rafizi Ramli guy should be groomed to take over Anwar. He is the better bet for PM candidacy in the long run! I like his style of exposing BN's corruptions.

He just have to be careful not to be exposed his recklessness and eager to "expose" BN too fast! a possible Tan Chee Khoon in the making?

When is the election lar? What is najib afraid of? Cant wait already. The world market is comin up

Put GE13 in stocking picture. GE13 TA speaking is sideline, so buy or sell? To me, either BN or PR win, make no difference at all, our nation FA is still the same. Resources remain, businesses on going, Rakyat life go on as usual, market SURE back to normal, thus conclusion is BUY and accumulate on low...wait for the harvest.
The outcome is BN win, profit on rebound, but I think IF PR win, profit Big ..big. Seem FI is in favour of the market then, will it??
