[Title] => Managing its taxes
[Summary] => Many analysts that have started to crunch Smart’s financial numbers have one general conclusion – the financial performance of the country’s leading mobile operator for 2006 will depend on how well it manages its taxes.
In the last five years, Smart’s record-breaking financial performance was aided by the tax holiday it got from the Board of Investments. Can you imagine a company earning billions of pesos and having to pay very little tax? How lucky can it get?

[Title] => Two top Smart Communications officials resign
[Summary] => Years after the failed Gokongwei Group’s takeover bid, Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) chairman Manuel V. Pangilinan faces once again an extremely tough dilemma – this time over how to keep his management team at Smart Communications, Inc. from falling apart.
Smart Communications has just announced the resignation of two of its top officials, citing personal reasons. But there is more to the news than meets the eye, highly placed sources told The STAR yesterday.
