How it's used
This term is primarily used in formal or administrative contexts rather than everyday casual conversation. It refers specifically to taxes levied by local or municipal governments rather than the central government. In Hong Kong, the concept is less common in daily life compared to other jurisdictions because the tax system is centralized.
