Property owners and tenants are up in arms against lawmakers for imposing 25 per cent rental income tax, effective July 1.
Dozens of landlords and tenants interviewed accused members of the 10th Parliament, whose term expires next week, of not consulting them as voters and real estate stakeholders.
The new levy is likely to result in increased rent as property owners will pass the cost onto tenants, who will desert commercial and residential buildings.
