AGENDA 7: USUL-USUL BARU
NO. PERKARA KEDUDUKAN / TINDAKAN
7.1
7.2
SALES TAX AND / OR DUTIES FOR SPARE
PARTS OF MACHINERIES
Usul oleh ACCCIM
Apparently almost all production machineries are
imported either on piecemeal orders or turnkey
projects.
However costly replacement parts either on wear &
tear or consumables that are imported
subsequently are subjected to sales tax and/or
duties that discourage further investment to
upgrade.
The Government has encouraged automation in the
manufacturing sector as to avoid dependencies on
foreign labour.
Recommendation :
To request that Customs Sales tax and/or duties
for spare parts of machinery currently bearing
tax & duties be abolished.
CUSTOMS PROCEDURE FROM PORT
SEPANGGAR TO TANJUNG ARU SABAH
Usul oleh ACCCIM
Presently cargo owners have to shuttle from Port
Sepanggar to Tanjung Aru in Sabah to complete
the Customs procedure which is time consuming
and waste of resources as the distance between
the two places is more than 50 km
Recommendation :
To urge the Customs to centralise the whole
processing procedure from assessment,
payment of duties and collection of 'Duty Paid'
stickers at Sabah Port Sepanggar as to improve
procedure and to reduce time & resources of cargo
owners.
