Australian Expat attempts Road Tax Gambit- Get's Caught
Sarawak has much lower road tax for luxury vehicles RM5000 vs. RM20,000 on the peninsula. This guy from down under thought he had found a smart way to reduce his tax load.

Ouch...totally misread THAT.
Seems that the Australian was more of a victim than an agent of malfeasance...and that the owner was running a wider scam. Sorry to any from the Land of the Long Weekend. You'd think that they'd check on whether the vehicles have import/shipping documents into Sabah/Sarawak before issuing them a registration....but maybe the owner figured out a way of concealing that, too. |

Actually it was not the cosmetic king himself, he says he has no time to care about such small things like vehicle registration and road tax for his big collection of luxury cars, his staff made a mistake :)
But who rented out the Rolls to the Australian guy, will we ever know? :D |
Re: Australian Expat attempts Road Tax Gambit- Get's Caught
That's believable...my staff went over to Sarawak, accidently brought along all the documents necessary for the registration, and thought..."well I have some time off from watching orangutans and proboscis monkeys...maybe I'll just plop down to the Vehicle Registration office after I finish my laksa". Yeah, the employee just wanted to save some trips at home.
That's it...yeeaaahhh....:rofl: |
