00:04 Will the government restart consumer tax?
00:07 It has become a hot topic in recent days.
00:09 Lafayette, the Minister of Economy, once said that the government will not rule out restarting consumer tax in the future to increase taxes.
00:17 It seems to be foretelling that consumer tax may come back at any time.
00:22 The Minister of Finance, An Hua, was asked if the government would restart consumer tax, but she did not give a clear answer.
00:31 She admitted for the first time that consumer tax is a more transparent and effective tax system.
00:38 However, An Hua did not say whether the government will implement consumer tax.
00:41 She just emphasized that before implementing consumer tax, it must first implement targeted subsidies to reduce subsidies for the rich.
00:49 Does An Hua admit that consumer tax is a more effective tax system and is she exposing the government to implement consumer tax?
00:56 The Deputy Minister of Finance, Shen Zhiqiang, gave a clear answer today.
01:00 Let's watch a group of domestic news.
01:02 The government does not intend to restart consumer tax.
01:05 Deputy Minister of Finance, Shen Zhiqiang, attended the 2024 Chaos Tour Dialogue today and pointed out to reporters that the government does not intend to restart consumer tax.
01:14 She pointed out that this is because China has not yet reached a dead end.
01:19 There are other measures to improve the country's income, such as implementing better tax policies and targeted subsidies.
01:25 Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Mosha, emphasized that China currently has 900,000 tons of rice storage, which is enough to meet the needs of China's four to five-month supply.
01:34 For the State Councilor's Office, the government has suggested that foreign buyers should not buy local rice.
01:39 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mosha, said that foreign buyers should also eat local rice, and that they have a certain contribution to the development of China.
01:45 Therefore, the government does not intend to do so.
01:47 A video posted on social media yesterday showed a motorcycle rider suspected of trying to escape the traffic police's roadside inspection, but was arrested and charged with assaulting a law enforcement officer.
01:58 The suspect was arrested and sentenced to four days in prison.

02:06 His driver's license and road tax have all expired.
02:09 As for the arrested law enforcement officer, he was only injured in the hand and foot, and is currently in hospital.
