（亚罗士打4日讯）吉打州务大臣拿督斯里莫哈末沙努西说，州内3所独中可向州政府提出申请，重新调整校地用途分类，将土地归类为非营利教育机构用途，以享有较低的地税优惠。
他说，只要独中董事会正式提交申请，州政府将研究及作出考量，协助减轻学校的财务负担。
沙努西指出，目前州内3所独中的校地并非以教育用途登记，而是被列为私人土地，因此所需缴付的地税相对较高，增加学校每年的营运开销。
“其中一所学校的校地属私人拥有，每平方尺地税税率约为60仙，每年须缴付2万4000令吉，数额相当高。”
沙努西是于今日主持吉打州行政议会后，在记者会上促请各校董事部尽快提出申请，以便将校地重新归类为非营利教育机构，从而减轻长期的地税负担。
他透露，吉打州行政议会已在日前会议中，批准亚罗士打吉华独中和双溪大年新民独中的地税减免申请，同意豁免两校所拖欠地税的90%。
根据记录，吉华独中自2011年以来累计拖欠约17万7000令吉地税；新民独中则自2018年以来累计拖欠约26万7000令吉，两校欠款合计约44万4000令吉。
两校获90%地税减免后，只需偿还约4万4400令吉，等同欠税额10%，大大缓解财务压力。
