  "account": "Tebrau MP Jimmy Puah Wee Tse plans to address tax uncertainty over commingled oil cargo at Tanjung Langsat Port, Johor, during a parliamentary session. The MP emphasized that a lack of clarity in taxation obligations is a significant concern for industry players, as they seek to expand the petroleum logistics and maritime sectors. Puah, a member of the Parliamentary Special Select Committee on Economy and Finance, intends to urge the committee to call relevant parties for clarification and a resolution to the issue. The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and Royal Malaysian Customs Department (RMCD) have proposed establishing a task force to monitor tax collection at strategic ports since July 15. However, the task force's outcome remains undisclosed. Recently, Datuk Seri Jeyenderan Ramasamy, CEO of Maritime Network Sdn Bhd, called for a written response from MACC regarding a June report on alleged commingling of petroleum cargo, which has not yet been provided. The White House Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy recently identified Malaysia as one of more than 40 countries at risk of facilitating tariff evasion through China-linked transshipment networks.",
