Pay taxes to fund corrupt government. Lol Imf and even now icc are massive corruption encouraging organization. Nothing done to reduce government expenditure. Imf also got caught red handes just like icc recently. Future government should take both imf and icc to an international court for aiding corruption. We should not pay a single rupee as taxes.

We don't know how many Billionaires are there amongst the current and retired employees of the CUSTOMS, EXCISE AND INLAND REVENUE DEPARTMENTS. SOME OF THEM MAY HAVE ALREADY MIGRATED.

How about politicians and their henchmen? Check their assets of the whole family! Confiscate if they look unjustifiable!

Implement laws for all citizens to disclose assets and liabilities. Husbands wives and children to declare their family connections as well. Employ more at IRD to check on the declarations and do the needful. Question them on how they earned the money to acquire the assets etc and confiscate their assets

Not just higher officials. Tax evasion is rampant among shop owners. Most of them don't issue receipts, which means they are avoiding taxes. Govt. should employ officers under cover to catch and fine those not issuing receipts.
