Taxable Items/Business awareness

In Pakistan almost 90% people are unaware that what items are taxable or not...........
Although there is huge noise about taxes but 90% are unaware.
For Example,
1. in restaurant, people do not ask for bill and pay in cash.
2. in Pvt Hospital, doctors charge a lot of money and people do not ask for receipt for invoices and pay in cash.
Doctors are charging 1500~2000 rupees for just five minutes of check up and are being paid in cash without any taxable invoice.
3. In shopping malls, almost everything is being sold in cash without any taxable invoice.
4. Some companies paying half salary in cash and half through bank.

So how people know that what is taxable and they shall demand receipt of invoice which is taxable.

So its responsibility of FBR to make videos and explain in simple terms that people shall ask for the taxable receipts/invoices.
How this theft of tax affects the people and if they ask for the receipts, how it will improve their life.
In any case, Tax is charged to end user and is not being paid to Government.

I think FBR with help of media industry shall prepare simple videos explaining all procedures and steps to the people for Tax awareness. It shall be told in simple terms to people how tax evasion actually cost to common public.

Also in schools and colleges Text books, essays shall be included in the textbooks to create tax awareness. In school books, its very important for our next generations.
There can be other suggestions as well.

FBR can send/share these simple videos through wattsapp, twitter, facebook if do not have funds for electronic media.............................

You are right. But we shall move on. Lawyers will have to pay. Remove their Electrical and Gas appliances.
Do not treat them in Hospitals, Government Offices etc. Government has a lot of power. But until there is no awareness, poor people will not ask them. Do not give their children admission in schools until they do not provide tax clearance receipts etc
Tax evaders shall made as symbol of abuse. Tax is for poor and for country so everyone must pay.....................
