Summary:This report fulfils two purposes. First, to inform UUM as sponsor to SIG-GST about the activities that has been carried out by SIG-GST to bring awareness on the future implementationof Goods and Services Tax (GST) in Malaysia.In regard to this, SIG-GST planned was to propose a national education and communication campaign to the Ministry of Finance (MoF).Second, to report on the nature of work that SIG-GST has accomplished from July 2010 until the end of it’s last activity in October 2012.In general, the central theme of SIG-GST work is promoting awareness on GST at UUM. This proactive effort was initiated by a small group of scholars sharing similar interest to support government’s incoming fiscal policy which will change the landscape of economy, social and administration of tax. Two series of seminar was conducted to disseminate GST awareness and education to public. UUM has started its rapport with GST unit at Malaysian Royal Customs (MRC).
