LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Mswati, the untaxed biggest consumer of tax.

Thursday, 21st April, 2022

My I firstly thank you for being the people’s journalist. 

Allow me to talk about the economic crisis caused by the monarchy. These guys do not pay taxes yet they are the biggest spenders of the tax. The king allegedly owns more than 60% of the country’s businesses yet he doesn’t pay corporate taxes. I even doubt that the VAT taken from us when we buy front his retailer shops is submitted to SRA. The government runs it’s day to day business through taxes so when the majority businesses in the country do not pay taxes, it is bound to collapse due to cash flow problems. 
Mr editor allow me to mention that for as long as we are lead by an absolute monarch, we are slowly but surely sinking into serious poverty. Even those that are earning a living for now, will eventually feel the pinch. They may try shift the blame to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, but we know it’s not. The current economic situation in the country is locally brewed.

King Mswati.
