Credit Card Service Tax to be abolished by 2013? Good or bad news?

I heard from the radio this morning that the Government is planning to abolished the Credit Card RM50 Service Tax by 2013. This might due to the fact that this service tax failed to reduced debt. You can read more here.

This is good news for all credit card holders. However, there's another bad news for consumer as it was said that the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will be implemented when the Credit Card Service Tax is abolished.

I guess we still need to pay tax one way or another. Well, the Credit Card Service Tax doesn't seems so bad after all compared to the GST as there is no limit on the amount to be paid in GST while Credit Card Service Tax is fixed at RM50.

So which one you think is better in terms of its effectiveness in reducing debt and its burden on us all?
