In protest against the government's tax hike Thai fish merchants dumped large amounts of catfish

Yesterday, a large number of fish merchants gathered at the gates of Sa Kaeo province on the Thai-Cambodian border, dumping 400 tons of catfish on the street to protest the customs' decision to raise tariffs. The campaign caused a lot of congestion in the flow of people. It is understood that the Thai government has raised the previous 75 yuan per vehicle per hundred kilograms to 295 yuan, which has caused dissatisfaction among farmers and made the aquaculture industry have no profit at all, so they launched this action. Later, after coordination, the customs department agreed to follow the original collection standard on February 23, but from February 24, a tax of 2.3 yuan per kilogram began to be levied. Subsequently, local traffic gradually returned to normal.

After consulting the relevant information, it was found that there is no such tax in China. On the contrary, China has vigorously supported aquaculture, and strives to provide farmers with the most convenient production, transportation and marketing environment under various conditions.

First of all, because China strongly encourages exports, even the export of products does not need to pay taxes. And although there is a car and vessel tax, the fishing and breeding fishing vessels are exempt from paying the vehicle and vessel tax, and they do not have to pay a large amount of tax, which saves farmers a lot of money. Moreover, for transportation, the government department also gives farmers great convenience, exempts farmers from highway charges, and does its best to ensure that this will also help promote the rapid development of the domestic aquaculture industry. It is believed that with the support of the state and so many benefits, China's aquaculture industry will develop more rapidly, and the domestic market will be more prosperous.
