KUALA LUMPUR: The National ICT Association of Malaysia (Pikom) is seeking clarification from the government on whether the industry will be subjected to digital tax, withholding tax or both on January 1, next year.

Chairman Ganesh Kumar Bangah (pix) said the industry particularly cloud services and online advertising would be affected if they are subjected to the implementation of digital tax, as the tax represents among the largest cost components to digital companies.
