government tax reductions 結果共2筆

The CPC Corporation, under the Ministry of Economic Affairs, has announced a reduction of NT$0.3 in gasoline prices and an increase of NT$0.3 in diesel prices starting midnight on Monday. This adjustment is part of the ongoing implementation of the dual stabilization mechanism for oil pricing. The pricing measures absorbed NT$0.2 for both gasoline and diesel this week, following a decline in the 7D3B weekly average price. The floating oil pricing mechanism originally predicted a decrease of NT$0.1 in gasoline prices and an increase of NT$0.5 in diesel prices. However, due to currency appreciation in neighboring Asian countries, Taiwan’s price adjustments fell below those of its neighbors, resulting in a net absorption of NT$0 for both types of fuel. CPC has stated that it will continue to adjust domestic fuel prices in accordance with the oil pricing formula and government tax reductions to maintain the lowest possible prices in Asia and stabilize domestic oil prices through its stabilization measures.

NPP legislator Chiu Hsien-chih criticized DPP presidential candidate Lai Ching-te over rental subsidies, suggesting that some landlords prefer reducing rents rather than allowing tenants to apply for subsidies. During a forum, Lai proposed that landlords offering rental subsidies receive reductions in taxes and funds for home maintenance and administrative fees. Chiu argued that some landlords would rather lower rental rates than enable tenants to apply for subsidies, as it could lead to them paying more income tax. Chiu also highlighted that the government expanded the rental subsidy amount to NT$300 billion last year, aiming to support 500,000 households, but only 278,000 households received assistance, achieving an implementation rate of 55.74%.
