-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Revenue Department of Thailand in conjunction with 12 other member tax administrations of SGATAR (Study Group on Asian Tax Administration and Research) holds a training programme on Taxation of Cash Intensive Buisness. The aim of the programme is to find ways and means to enhance the efficiency of tax administration and to forge close relationships among members. SGATAR comprises 13 members: Australia, China, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Chinese Taipei, Thailand and Vietnam. Mr. Sanit Rangnoi, the Director-General of the Revenue Department said Every country gives importance to the cash intensive business as it is a dynamic sector of the economy with high economic value. At the same time it is a significant and complex problem for tax administrations. Therefore tax administrations within the SGATAR (Study Group on Asian Tax Administration and Research) group decided to hold a joint training programme during 18-22 June 2007 at Rose Garden Riverside, Nakhon Pathom. I believe that the outcomes of this training programme and cooperation will benefit each tax administration in strengthening the capability in monitoring and taxing the cash intensive business. |
