My words are my thoughts and I'm a pessimist person who just thinks that Murphy's Law is what defines me. I believe that anything bad that has ever happened will continue to do so. So, if anything just cannot go wrong, it will anyway...

It looks like a bunch of garbled text, huh? Well, you can actually learn how to decode using by reading this post.

If you hate challenges, you might want to try jlys@[remove-this]tm.net.my but I only used this sparingly as it's the primary target for junk mails.

 Lower Tax

Fuminari went to the Pejabat Kastam to claim our stuff. After opening up the stuff, found out the thing didn't come with any invoices. Therefore the Kastam cannot charge us accordingly.

YES!

The officer there then have to put in a price estimate, which Fuminari put in as RM 200. Therefore we're taxed only RM 92 (42% of import tax, be very careful boys and girls). Hmm, taxed about RM 30 for my stuff. At least that's not so bad. Think I have to pay additional RM 30 bucks. Ah well at least that's worth it. We're gonna be careful of ordering stuff through the net.

Checked out with another friend as he ordered books from Amazon and he was not taxed a single cent! According to him, books are not taxed but however, magazine will be filtered. If there are a lot of explicit materials, the Kastam will immediately seize it without hopes of returning even you've paid for that. I'd say that's not fair in their department.
