President Duterte Trustingly Said That His Government Has Money. "Sinasabi Ko Na Sa Administrasyong Ito, WE HAVE THE MONEY," He Said.

President Duterte trustingly said that his government has money. "Sinasabi ko na sa administrasyong ito WE HAVE THE MONEY," he said.


But why did DOF secretary Dominguez not enforce the SUPREME COURT decision (G.R. No. 199802 and G.R. No. 208488 decided 2018-07-03 final since 2019-04-10) ordering the Department of Finance to pay all Local Government Units (LGUs) Internal Revenue Allotment or IRA amounting to P600 billion - even on staggered bases? 

Is the secretary's refusal to pay - even on staggered bases - not a clear indication that the government is actually short of money?

What happened to the much-vaunted TRAIN LAW which has been in effect since January 1, 2018 yet?

Is it not that the secretary was the principal architect of the TRAIN LAW?

Is it not that the TRAIN LAW was purposely crafted to raise more revenues for the government?

Is it not that the BIR proudly announced that it was able to collect P2.17 trillion even if approximately 7% short of its P2.330 trillion revenue goal for year 2019, not to mention that it was actually WINDOW-DRESSED to trick the President?

P600 billion is such a gargantuan amount of funds for use in the development of the LGUs; more importantly now that our country is experiencing an extremely dangerous disaster triggered by the ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) disease.

Had payment thereof not been suspended, all LGUs could have already received their respective shares - even on staggered bases.

On another note.

It's been two (2) years now since the President was officially informed of the corruption issue involving Dulay thru the former BIR Director Othello Dalanon’s letter-report, but the President remains mum about it.

The BIR DULAY CORRUPTION has also been publicly exposed via -

✅Social media or Facebook postings;
✅Publication in MSM:
▪️The Manila Times by Mr Ramon T. Tulfo
▪️GMA News Online by Mr. Flor Taguinod
✅Mass actions held by RDRG at -
▪️BIR National Office in Quezon City
▪️Philippine Senate in Pasay City
▪️National Press Club in Manila
▪️Mendiola (Front of Malacanang Gate)

With all these discourses, it is believed to be infeasible that the President still doesn't know about the issue.

His deafening silence on Dulay's case clearly demonstrates tolerance despite the severity of the criminal offense that Dulay has committed against the Republic of the Philippines - in the extremely anomalous settlement of Cosmos Bottling Corporation's (Cosmos) P3.76 billion deficiency tax liabilities for only P51 million.

The Cosmos case already has a Final Decision from the Court of Tax Appeals (CTA Case No. 9405 dated 25May17). The Court said that Cosmos’s P3.76B deficiency tax liabilities has become final, executory and demandable; BIR’s settlement for only P51M was INVALID and without the approval of the Bureau’s Evaluation Board.

On 13 February 2018, Dalanon reported this anomaly to the President thru the then SAP, now senator Bong Go.

On 08 February 2019, Dalanon again submitted a report to the President reiterating the aforementioned anomaly and that of the Del Monte's P8.7B tax liabilities which was also grossly reduced to only P65M.

Sadly, on 25 June 2019, Dalanon was dismissed from BIR for reporting the worst corruption ever in BIR history involving President Duterte’s long-time friend and former YMCA Dormitory room mate BIR commissioner Caesar Rivera Dulay.

Who else can have the audacity to report corruption in government if it would only mean dismissal from the service just like what happened to former BIR Director Othello Dalanon who was sacked for reporting BIR DULAY CORRUPTION to President Duterte and senator Bong Go?

VAT in the PHILIPPINES

VAT IN THE PHILIPPINES The VAT system in the Philippines took effect on 1Jan1988 by virtue of the then President Cory Aquino’s Executive Order (EO) No. 273, the law adopting the VAT as implemented by RR No. 05-87 at the rate of ten percent (10%) on all taxable transactions. The tax rate was increased to twelve percent (12%) starting 1Feb2006 by virtue of RA No. 9337 as implemented by RR No. 16-2005 as amended by RR No. 04-07. VAT is an indirect tax and the amount of tax may be shifted to or passed on to the buyer, transferee, or lessee of goods, properties or services. It is a tax on consumption of goods, services or other dealings involving the same. It forms a significant portion of consumers expenses. It is a “tax credit method” wherein the Input VAT paid or incurred by a VAT-registered entity is creditable against the Output VAT which it shifts to or passes on to another VAT-registered entity or buyer-end-user. In other words, Output VAT minus Input VAT. Under the sa...
