Import tax

(looking again at the question, I think it is asking what I was thinking i.e. how much more expensive is it to buy an item imported from Singapore than Thailand?)

i agree; most people would have approached the question in the way you did.

Just a general question regarding import tax - which country keeps the import tax? Is it the country that the item is imported to or the country where it is exported from?

I reckon it is the country it is imported to, as they want to make imported items seem less attractive to buy?
