KOTA KINABALU: The Inland Revenue Board (IRB) has identified a number of politicians among some 80,000 taxpayers who have failed to declare their taxes and return their tax forms.
IRB chief executive officer Datuk Seri Sabin Samitah said it had issued notices under Section 79 of the Income Tax Act 1967 to the individuals involved asking them to declare their earnings or stern action would be taken against them.
“These individuals, including some politicians, are those who have earnings and salaries but did not return their tax forms or did not declare their supplemental incomes like commission, rent and online business,” he told a press conference here, yesterday. – Bernama
