[Title] => Espiritu bats for low gross income tax
[Summary] => Former Finance Secretary Edgardo B. Espiritu is espousing a gross income tax that would be subject to a low tax rate of between five and nine percent.
However, Espiritu’s gross income tax would apply to everybody, without exemptions.
Entities such as foundations, civic organizations, non-stock and non-profit organizations, non-governmental organizations, all government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCS), would be covered by the gross income tax rule as long as they earn income.

[Title] => Government to shun international capital market in favor of ODA next year
[Summary] => The National Government will rely next year on official development assistance (ODA) and funding from bilateral and multilateral financial institutions to help finance its budgetary requirements.
This was revealed yesterday by Finance Secretary Jose T. Pardo who said ODA, bilateral and multilateral financing would supplement domestic borrowings. As a last resort, the government will only go back to the international capital market if the domestic funding and ODA funds are not enough.
