What is Wilful tax evasion ?

Hello everyone. I am an account executive. Now I am in an SDN bhd in charge full set account.

I would like to ask everyone’s opinion, if the boss asks for false accounting, because the boss don’t want to give too much tax.

I’ve already told the boss that it’s illegal to do so.

If LHDN finds it out, what responsibilities do I have to bear? Will I be fined? Still going to jail?
