China’s tax evasion criticised
NZPA-AP Peking Half China’s State and collectively run enterprises and up to 80 per cent of its private businesses cheat on taxes, says the “People’s Daily.” “This attitude of tax evasion not only violates our
tax laws and sabotages our economic order but contributes to new unhealthy tendencies, disrupts reform, reduces the country’s income, and hurts the fundamental interests of the masses,” the Communist Party newspaper com-
plained in a front-page article. It did not disclose how much money is lost because of tax cheats, but said that last year in Hebei Province alone the figure amounted to 100 million yuan ($77 million).
