Luxury properties thrive as affordability sinks
Picture an average Malaysian drowning in bills and rising costs, yet a simple glance at the Kuala Lumpur skyline reveals cranes gleaming hard at work, building brand-new, dazzling condominiums with million-ringgit price tags. Malaysia has a real estate paradox and it does not get more obvious than that. While an affordability crisis deepens for ordinary citizens, the high-end property sector continues to thrive. This contradiction raises questions about what drives such a phenomenon.

MOF: Tax Break On Rentals To Boost Competitiveness, Avoid Overseas Shift
The Finance Ministry (MOF) clarified that the service tax exemption on ship and aircraft rentals was introduced to protect Malaysia's competitiveness and prevent capital flight. In a statement, MOF said imposing the tax risked pushing local ship and aircraft owners to register abroad, reducing Malaysia's share of economic and tourism-related activity. At the same time, it noted that neighbouring countries do not impose such levies, meaning Malaysian operators could lose out to foreign competitors without the exemption. 'This exemption is targeted at the aviation and maritime sectors, which are vital to the supply chain, tourism and the national economy. It does not apply to other rentals such as cars, buses or premises,' MOF said, while emphasising that the tax exemption was not done through any 'silent' move. The ministry highlighted that the policy was officially communicated through Service Tax Policy No 2/2025 (Amendment No. 1), uploaded to the MySST portal on July 24, 2025.

Pahang launches Malaysia's first prebiotic rice for better health
TEMERLOH: Pahang has made history as the first Malaysian state to produce prebiotic rice, branded as Beras Pahang. Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail highlighted its unique health advantages. 'Beras Pahang has its uniqueness. It is a prebiotic rice, low in sugar, and suitable for those with diabetes.' Currently, the rice is sold in limited quantities, with Pahang residents getting priority access. Grown in Pekan's Ganchong fields, it boasts enhanced taste, fragrance, and softness while aiding digestion. Priced at RM8 per kg, it was launched at Pahang Mini MAHA 2025 in Dataran Temerloh. The event drew over 80,000 visitors, prompting plans to rotate its location annually. Wan Rosdy cited Pahang's RM25.12 billion agriculture sector contribution, second only to Johor. Crops dominated with 88% of sales, led by palm oil (RM14.18 billion) and Cameron Highlands vegetables (RM3.6 billion). Musang King durian earned RM2.42 billion, reinforcing its global appeal. Pahang also leads in fresh milk production, with 9.05 million litres worth RM47.25 million. The state is expanding into premium livestock, including wagyu cattle, to boost high-value agriculture. - Bernama
