It's tax season now, and they set up an e-filing scheme so that I can file my tax online. First, I need to obtain a Digital Certificate Registration Slip. You can get it (1) through the nearest branch, or (2) through email. Guess which one I picked? ... of course the fake one. That's life m'dear - when things are too good to be true, chances are they're too good to be true. heh.
So I thought, right on .. we're finally developing! Of course, the one thing that the government would run properly is the rice bowl aka the tax department. Make sense. So I sent them an email on April 12 & waited & waited & waited. Hmmmm ... don't they want my money? not interested in my tax? Finally, they replied today!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dear Sir / Madam,
Your e-mail refers.
We wish to apologise to you, for not being able to process your application for Digital Certificate Registration Slips via e-mail ,due to overwhelming request of the slip via e-mails and fax , as well as the due date for submission is getting nearer (30 April 2006).
You are hereby kindly advised to obtain the Digital Certificate Registration Slip from the nearest LHDN Branch Office or from counters that have been setup for the Taxpayer's Service Month ( BPPC Counters / Outside Office Premise ).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
overwhelming request? .... Here's what might have happened:
- All of a sudden the population of our country seemed to have skyrocketed this year, darn. We can't handle all these requests! So, what do we do? Hmmm, lets chuck these applications away and get them to jam-pack our branch and parking lot & send in their applications again. Lets see if the population miraculously shrinks! Then we would be able to handle it.
or
- Yay, we've got ONE computer! Lets start an e-filing program. Ohno, overwhelming requests! The other people who handles walk-in applications are way across on the other side of the room. That's too far. I'll just chuck these applications and get them to apply again over there lah.
Oh yes, lets reply them a week later, when due date approaches ..... can relax first ....
