Whats the use of increasing / applying sales tax when the collection machinery doesn't work efficiently. This will only increase prices and the vendor will pocket the money.

What will 13% tax-to-GDP achieve? All monies will be spent on official tours, cars, free fuel and electricity and dinners. I'm appalled! They won't cut free fuel for bureaucrats but tax baby milk!!

The government needs to cut its own expenditure and stop increasing taxes to fund loan payments and a bloated bureaucracy.
