Bhutan's regressive taxing of women's sanitary products needs to go!
Manage episode 312471271 series 3236019
The National Assembly of Bhutan will be deliberating the Goods and Services Tax Bill of Bhutan 2020. We've never had a single rate tax before GST. The GST deliberation is important for women because for the first time, there will will be a discussion to remove taxation on feminine hygiene products like tampons and sanitary napkins.
In this episode, I share an opinion piece of mine written in December 2018 for The Diplomat on "Why Bhutan’s 'Blood Tax' Needs To Be Scrapped."
