Workers’ Party responds to commentary by Senior Minister of State over allegations on party’s position on GST

The Workers’ Party (WP) has responded to Senior Minister of State for Finance and Transport Chee Hong Tat’s commentary on their change in stance on Goods & Services Tax (GST). The WP expressed surprise that Mr Chee did not raise his concerns in Parliament if he was unsatisfied with the replies from its Members of Parliament. The party also pointed out that they had never called for a reduction of GST from 7% to 0%. The WP called on Mr Chee to debate their positions in Parliament, stating that it is not an unreasonable expectation for any serious government around the world.
