In this four-part series, KiniBiz takes a closer look at Budget 2014. We start with what’s in the budget as well as what was not. Many were not satisfied that the government has done enough to show that it is serious about curbing wastage, inefficiency and corruption. In our second article we look at the long anticipated Goods and Services Tax and ask tax professionals for their take. KiniBiz then goes on to consider the tax breaks in Budget 2014 and whether they are really going to make a difference. We end the series with property and housing in Budget 2014. With a series of cooling measures alongside more affordable housing goodies, KiniBiz analyses the lay of the land for the property sector post-Budget 2014.
