Why is it slightly expensive in Laos than in Thailand?is it because 10%tax in Laos rather 7% tax in Thailand?
In free market economy under principle of supply side economic theory,the higher tax the more tax would:
a.kill job,
b.slow down investment,
c.deter economic growth and economic development.
d.cause UNHEALTHY flow of money circulation.
Higher tax means BIGGER GOVERNMENT. I hope Lao ministry of planning re-examine their thought ONE MORE TIME. Back down
from higher tax.
