MIW would not be so clear cut now whether to increase GST or not.
I not even sure will even clearly spell it out during Budget 2018 even though many experts said it will happen then and there so as not to shoot themselves in the foot before the next GE.

But logically best way to bank in the money faster is to increase GST to 10% whereby everyone will get be taxed. None being spared at all.
High chance it will be enforced after the next GE.

KNN just gave most of us $200 not long ago but already planned to tax us more in return, one way or another.

What he said includes, having sufficient monies for this term, likely hint that tax increase may not be so pronounced in this term but eill come in next.

If we look at them announcing change, some are done 2-3 years ahead. 0% car growth was touch on in 2005.
