The government is giving you RM300 to go and break some sweat

Something that I just discovered earlier this year is that we are entitled for tax relief for our expenses

for Sports and Exercise Equipment. The amount of rebate is up to RM300 per year. The exceptions

would be, you cannot claim rebate for expenses on sports attire and sports shoes. But "tangible" sports

item like shuttlecock and golf balls are allowed.

Potongan cukai sebanyak RM300 diberi atas pembelian peralatan sukan yang dilakukan olehindividu untuk aktiviti sukan mengikut jenis sukan yang disenaraikan dalam Akta PembangunanSukan 1997. Peralatan sukan termasuk alat‐alat yang mempunyai jangka hayat yang singkatseperti bola golf dan bulu tangkis tetapi tidak termasuk pakaian sukan, contoh: pakaianrenang dan kasut sukan. Perenggan 46(1)(l)

So what is considered as "sports" by the government? You may refer to the Akta Pembangunan Sukan1997 here. For those who are so lazy to click the link or the office's internet connection blocks theaccess, the list is as below:

1. Memanah (Archery)2. Olahraga (Athletics)3. Sukan Air (Water Sports)4. Sukan Bermotor (Motor Sports)5. Badminton6. Bola Keranjang (Basketball)7. Biliard dan Snuker (Billiard and Snooker)8. Bina Badan (Body building)9. Boling (Bowling)10. Tinju (Boxing)11. Kriket (Cricket)12. Lumba Basikal (Cycling)13. Sukan Ekuestrian (Equestrian)14. Lawan Pedang (Fencing)15.

I am planning to purchase a bicycle as that seems to be the "in" thing nowadays around my area. Wifeyis saying this might be a "hot hot chicken shit" kind of purchase. Come to think of it, since when mypurchases are not! But now since I found the list of approved sports, I am interested in item no. 7. Forthe usual "American Pool" guys, bila lagi weh??? Main snooker dah bertahun‐tahun.. government naksponsor ni! Now I wonder, can we claim rebate for the table rental bills?

kalo sorg rm300.. biase kite main 1 snuk 1 table 4 org bermakna jumlah rebate yg bley claim

= 4x rm300 = rm1200!!

meaning, every month bley spend rm1200/12 = rm100. every week plak rm100/4 = rm25!

waaa just nice!

ape lagi wehhh bley la buat weekly event!!!! I luv u la malaysia!

sport shoes are excluded but would football boots fall under sports equipment? They are only

used for a single purpose as there are studs and everything.

Thanks
