Airport Tax

I am sure a lot of Malaysian having experience with the only low cost carrier, Air Asia. Have you realized that, whenever you purchased the ticket via online (obviously) the airport tax fare also appeared on your ticket, meaning to say you have paid for the airport tax? Now the question is what if you canceled the flight? Have they returned back the money? Where have all the airport tax gone? What we paid supposed to be the flight fair but since we canceled the flight, we didn’t use the air port? Why must we pay for the tax since we don’t use the airport?
I think most of people can accept if they don't get back their flight fair since they cancel the flight but not the tax.
Is a cinema going to charge us the 5% entertainment tax if we don’t go watch for a movie? Since we canceled the flight, why don’t they give us back the money? If we can communicate with them via net (ticket purchasing via online), why can’t they do the same thing?
