林征声(左起)和黄华生展示资料,质疑华小与书局
合谋,并且不排除有关书局涉嫌逃税及洗黑钱勾当。

(八打灵再也24日讯)马来西亚华文教育家长总会(家总)怀疑,雪州内有多间华小与一间书局合谋,规定家长必须为孩子购买额外作业簿,然而收据却没有公司信头、公司注册号码及消费税注册号码,不排除该书局涉嫌逃税及洗黑钱勾当。
家总理事林征声今日在家总会长黄华生陪同下,召开记者会指出,教育部宣布采用小学课程标准(KSSR)教学后,很多学校校方都规定学生采用该书局的额外作业簿,导致家长每年要额外支付至少200至400多令吉。
他质疑,该书局所发出的书单收据,没有公司信头、公司注册号码及消费税注册号码,而引发是否获内陆税收局认可,家长能否凭该单据申请扣个人所得税的疑问。
他称曾就此议题向雪州教育局投诉,唯时隔多月,该局至今没有回应。
另外,家总顾问梁全达披露,内陆税收局雪州分局个人所得税单位官员已证实,有关书局发出没有公司信头、公司注册号码及消费税注册号码的书单收据,属于非法收据。
他周五陪同林征声等人到雪州内陆税收局觐见有关官员后,向《中国报》引述官员回复指出,由于是非法收据,家长的确不能以该单据申请扣税。

Pro Chinese educationist group Jiazhong says these schools may be in cahoots with an exclusive book vendor

PETALING JAYA: Pro-Chinese educationist group, Persatuan
Jaringan Ibubapa Bahasa Zhong Hua, better known as Jiazhong, today lodged a
report with the Petaling Jaya Inland Revenue Board (LHDN), claiming possible
tax fraud in Chinese schools.
The parent who lodged the report, Lim Jen Shiah, said that
the invoice issued to him by a teacher at a Chinese school in Selangor for
books bought from a prominent book vendor looked suspicious to him, which was
why he has decided to pursue the matter.
“We are here today to verify if the invoice is legal and
what we get from the LHD
N officer is confusing because the receipt which we have is
without company registration number, GST number, or even a letterhead.
“This is something not right to me but LHDN says it is
right. KL LHDN branch said it was wrong, but here they are saying it is right,”
said Lim outside the LHDN office here.
He said that they have now been asked to go to the LHDN head
office in Shah Alam to lodge a further report on the allegedly invalid invoice.
“We are saying that if this is a false invoice, it is
possible that we are looking at money laundering issue,” said Lim.
The amount stated on the invoice furnished by Lim was RM65
made to the book shop in question.
“The amount is irrelevant. Our concern is that tax not
declared for the amount,” said Lim, adding that if his suspicions were right,
then the book shop in question could be raking in millions without declaring
tax as they exclusively sell books to at least 50 Chinese schools in the
nation.
Jiazhong chairman Wong Foh Sang also echoed the same
concern, saying, “If one school’s sale is RM1 million, do you know the book
vendor involved in how many schools… I think easily not less than 50 schools.
“This only happens in Chinese schools. I think this never
happens in Sekolah Kebangsaan or even Tamil schools. Chinese schools have all
kinds of payments and if don’t pay, there goes special treatment for the
children,” lamented Wong.
He also questioned as to why books required by national
school students can easily be purchased outside of schools, even at discounted
prices, while Chinese school books can only be purchased on school grounds.
“You can never find Chinese school books in these book shops
(outside), only in the Chinese schools. Why? What is happening in Chinese
schools? Why cannot buy outside? Doesn’t it sound fishy?
“Chinese parents have been suffering in silence all this
while. That’s why you don’t see many parents here today as well. They are
scared that their children will be treated differently,” said Wong.
Earlier this month, Jiazhong lodged a report with the Royal
Malaysian Customs Department to begin investigations on a Subang Jaya Chinese
primary school for unlawfully collecting goods and services tax (GST).
According to them today, they have received ‘positive’
feedback from Customs on the matter but refused to reveal further.
