KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim wants the Inland Revenue Board to increase efficiency and eliminate corrupt practices that result in tax revenue leakage.
Acknowledging that tax collection is very challenging and faces risks such as threats from certain groups, Anwar said he will continue to provide full support to LHDN staff in carrying out their duties. "If the tax is supposed to be RM2mil, then pay RM2mil. But if they provide reasonable excuses and it is reduced slightly, that is acceptable. That is not my business, but I trust in the expertise and honesty of the LHDN members to handle it," he said."I want to see every sen, every ringgit that should be paid, paid without exception. But I also want to see that these taxes do not burden the people or companies beyond the set limits," he said.
Anwar also recalled his experience visiting LHDN when it was still a department during his previous tenure as Finance Minister.
