Reducing VAT to stimulate domestic consumption

From now until the end of the year, value-added tax (VAT) will be reduced by 2% from 10% to 8% for many items. Reducing value-added tax will reduce the cost of goods and services, stimulating consumption demand, promoting production and business and creating more jobs for workers.
