Gillmor Gang: What Are You, Four?

Gillmor Gang test patternThe Gillmor Gang ? Danny Sullivan, Dan Farber, Dan Taschek, and Dan Gillmor ? no, that's not right. Steve Gillmor, Steve Taschek... No. Without Scoble, we have little time to get to the point, which this week is Google's Do As Much Evil as Possible Tour. @dannysullivan returns with a 20 minute diatribe on paid inclusion, whatever that means. ? Without Kevin Marks, we have to fend for ourselves until @stevegillmor picks a fight about Google's war with Apple and its consequences for Google +. In rebuttal, Danny ends up proving @stevegillmor even more right than usual. Hovering just off camera is the sense that with all this talent and possibility, shouldn't these guys work together as they did when the disruption began? Hey, how old are you anyway?

5 pieces of tsunami debris found so far

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) ? Items ranging in size from a 164-foot shrimping vessel to a soccer ball have already made their way into North American waters following the March 2011 tsunami in Japan.

Environmentalists fear this is just the first wave of an estimated 1.5 million tons of debris that is in the ocean following the tsunami, much of which could land on U.S. shores.

Here's a look at some of the items that have already shown up, from biggest to smallest:

1. The 164-foot fishing vessel Ryou-Un Maru was in Hokkaido, Japan, and destined for the scrap heap when the tsunami dislodged it from its mooring. It drifted across the Pacific Ocean until the U.S. Coast Guard sank it in April 2012 in the Gulf of Alaska after determining it was a threat to shipping and the state's coastline.

2. Newport, Oregon, residents awoke Wednesday to find a 66-foot concrete and metal dock on the shore at Agate Beach along the central coast. The 165-ton dock was one of four that broke loose from the port of Misawa in the tsunami. Two other docks from Misawa are still missing.

3. A Harley-Davidson motorcycle was discovered inside a white container that washed up April 18 on Graham Island, off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. It was traced back to its owner in Japan by its license plate.

4. Cleanup workers near Craig, Alaska, in late March found a basketball with the words "Kesen chu," short for Kesennuma Chugakko or Kesennuma Middle School. Kesennuma is a major fishing port that was hit hard by the tsunami. Officials with the Marine Conservation Alliance in Juneau said the basketball was being packaged Thursday to be returned to Japan, along with a care package for students at the school still living in temporary housing.

5. David Baxter, a radar technician from Kasilof, Alaska, found a soccer ball in April 2012 on an Alaska island 110 miles south of the mainland. With the help of his wife, Yumi, who is Japanese and reached out to a Japanese reporter, the ball was reunited with its owner, a teenager who lost all his possession in the tsunami. A volleyball believed to be from Japan was also found on the trip.

Lipenga presents Malawi's 'recovery' budget, punitive taxes removed

Malawi?s Finance Minister Ken Lipenga on Friday ?heralded a national budget for 2012 and 2013 as one designed to address these challenges and put the economy onto a path of sustained recovery.

Delivering the budget statement in Parliament in the capital Lilongwe, Lipenga told the House ?that he tabled ? an austerity?Budget?.

He said: ? Some of the reforms will be painful.? But we have been living beyond our means?and have to take the difficult decisions that are necessary to stabilize the economy.? This?will?lay the foundation for sustainable economic growth in future.?

Lipenga: Recovery and austerity budget

In his budget speech, the Finance Minister announced another of measurer for economic growth which included removal of many punitive taxes on the poor.

He said ?the Customs and Excise Tax measures will be effective from midnight tonight ?(June 8) whereas the Value Added Tax (VAT) and all?other Income tax measures will become effective on 1st?July,?2012.

?Mr. Speaker,?Sir,?I wish to report that in this Budget, Government has removed the Minimum Tax Based on Turn Over which was introduced in the 2011/12 Budget and was deemed to be anti-developmental,? said Lipenga.

Lipenga also informed that government has removed taxes on gains from sale of shares that are held for more than one year to encourage long term investments specifically in shares that are traded on the stock exchange market.

The Minister said government has decided that all social contributions towards construction of hospitals, schools and sponsoring school sports development activities will be tax deductible up to 50 percent.

The country?s purse keeper said government acknowledge the impact of recent devaluation?and its?inflationary effects in the economy.

? In view of this, Government has increased the zero?percent?threshold for?PAYE from MK12, 000 to MK15,?000 and also increased the 15 percent?bracket from MK3, 000 to MK5, 000 whilst the excess will be taxed at 30 percent.

? In addition, the zero?percent?threshold for withholding tax on payment of casual labour has been aligned to the zero percent?threshold for Pay As You Earn (PAYE).? As such, the withholding tax payable on casual labour will only apply to payment for casual labour on income in excess of the zero?percent?threshold,? he said.

?Taxation of Pensions

The Minister informed the House that Section 13 in the Pensions Act on taxation of pensions has been amended to make reference to the Taxation Act.

? In view of this,?Section 13 of the Pensions Act will now be made effective as amended.? The Taxation Act has also been amended to introduce a new?structure for taxation of pensions. The amendment has been done such that contributions by the employees will be net of taxes and contributions by the employer will be deductible up to 15 percent?of the employee?s annual salary while earnings from the pension investments will be taxed at a reduced rate of 15 percent,? he said,

He said the pension benefits that accrue to the pensioner will be exempted from taxes.

?This has been done to ensure that pensioners have more disposable income at retirement.??

He said government has increased the rate?of corporate tax paid by cell phone?operators from 30 percent to 33 percent?.

VAT measurers

The Finance Minister said ?in order?to?attract investment, Value Added Tax (VAT) on machinery?has?been?removed.

VAT on Financial services has been removed in line with the principle of financial inclusion with a view to promoting a savings? culture.

VAT on Newspapers?and internet services have been removed ?to allow Malawians access information at affordable prices.?

Government has also removed VAT on bread and asked bakers to reduce the prices of bread.

??Mr. Speaker,?Sir,?the cost of bread has substantially increased in the course of the year and this is partially on account of the taxes that were introduced on standard bread in the 2011/12 budget. I wish to indicate that Government has now removed VAT on?bread. In view of this,?we implore our colleagues in this sector to reduce the prices of bread in response to this policy measure,? he said.

Customs and Excise Tax Measures

Lipenga said government has reviewed the excise tax regime in Malawi in line with best practice and also aligned to regional rates in order to curb smuggling.

?We believe this will culminate into increased employment and?production for the local and export market and the improvement of other forms of taxes.?

He said the reviewed?excise tax?regime?entails that some products will be reduced to zero while others will be?adjusted in line with the regional rates within SADC and COMESA.

Lipenga said the details of the revised excise rates will be published?in?a?Government Gazette Notice.

Among others, Government has removed excise duty on second hand clothes?and textiles.

Government has however increased ?Excise duty on alcohol packed in sachets and plastic bottles because ?alcohol abuse by minors continued to increase at an alarming rate.

?It is in this regard, Government has increased excise duty rate to 250 percent?on alcohol sold in sachets and plastic bottles.?

Customs Procedure Codes-

He said government has reviewed some of the Customs Procedure Codes (CPCs) under the Customs and Excise Tariffs Order.

?CPC 430 has been reviewed and returning residents will now be allowed to clear?duty-free?motor vehicles for personal use provided they have owned and used the motor vehicle for a period not less than 12 months whilst outside Malawi.,? he said.

? We have noted that this provision has been abused and in order to reduce the malpractice associated with this provision, Government has decided that duty be paid on disposal of such motor vehicles and that the provision will only be enjoyed by a qualifying beneficiary once in every five years.??

He however said this CPC does not cover buses, minibuses, pickups and any other commercial vehicles.

In addition, Government has also included diagnostic and laboratory reagents under CPC 405 which covers goods for medical use to be imported duty free by Health Institutions.

Lipenga said ?in the 2011/12?Budget,?Government introduced VAT on water supply by Water Boards and this necessitated the introduction of VAT on goods imported by Water Boards under CPC 488. This was reversed but the VAT still applied on the goods imported by Water Boards.

? In order to align the VAT structure, Government has removed VAT on Goods imported under CPC 488.? Government has also introduced a new CPC to allow duty free importation of electronic fiscal devices.?

He also said Section XXII of the Customs and Excise Tariffs Order has been reviewed in order to guard against abuse when privileged persons and organizations import motor vehicles.

? A procedure has been developed where privileged persons and organizations will now only be allowed to import directly or purchase motor vehicles from supplier?s ex-bond and not from open stock.? I wish to point out that no refund of duty shall be paid on claims made by privileged persons and organizations that choose to purchase motor vehicles in Malawi on which duty has already been paid.?

Government has?removed?all taxes currently existing on big buses of a seating capacity of more than 45 passengers?(including the driver).

Lipenga said the budget he has presented is?designed to promote sustainable economic growth.

?This?Budget is, in my view,?fiscally responsible; it?is also socially progressive and it?provides important safety nets and safeguards that will mitigate the adverse impacts of our recent currency adjustment on the?most?vulnerable segments of our population,? he told the house.

He said ??this is a moment of optimism and hope; it is also a moment to strengthen our resolve and courage to?see through this reform programme.?

Lipenga said Malawi faces ?the challenges but that they ?must be faced and overcome.?
