Goods and services tax (GST) on cinema tickets will not affect ticket sales, leading cinema operator Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) said: http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/283234
GST at 6 percent is expected to be levied on top of the 25 percent entertainment duty already charged on cinema tickets.
A GSC marketing spokesperson told China Press the six percent price hike will not discourage movie-goers because going to the cinema is a basic form of entertainment for modern society.
GSC would offer promotions as incentives for customers in the wake of the new tax, the spokesperson said.
