A Radio DJ Captures The Hysteria About The First Day Of VAT In The UAE In One Genius Tweet
VAT in the UAE is officially here, guys!
And in case you don’t know about the goods and services that will be subjected to 5% VAT, click here.
While the rest of the people are resorting to humour and sarcasm to cope with this new expenditure, there is one resident whose response to this hysteria is chill AF.
RJ Brent Black says it as it is
Just paid VAT for the first time. And I’m still alive. It’s gonna be okay everyone!

Clearly, not everyone here share his enthusiasm.
Definitely not this resident
