Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak wants consumers to \u201cdefeat\u201d errant businesses who are taking advantage of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) to increase their prices.<\/p>\n

It is within their power to choose \u201cwhere they want to shop or eat\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many others to go to. Use your power as consumers. Sooner or later, these businesses will lose consumers,\u201d the Prime Minister said in a recent TV3 interview.<\/p>\n

At the interview, Datuk Seri Najib also said that the Government had considered all factors and prepared for the implementation of GST for a long time.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not a new issue as it has been discussed since the 1980s. This is the right time to enforce it because the global oil price has dropped,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
