The three said the House and the Senate should reject the IMF recommendation for increasing the value added tax (VAT) from 10 percent to 11 percent, and the excise tax by 21 percent.

                    [Summary] => Members of the "Spice Boys" in the House of Representatives asked their colleagues yesterday to oppose an International Monetary Fund-recommended increase in the value added tax and excise tax.


The call is contained in a resolution authored by Lakas Representatives Juan Miguel Zubiri of Bukidnon, Robert Ace Barbers of Surigao del Norte and Rolando Andaya Jr. of Camarines Sur.


The three said the House and the Senate should reject the IMF recommendation for increasing the value added tax (VAT) from 10 percent to 11 percent, and the excise tax by 21 percent.

Ayon kay Bukidnon Rep. Juan Miguel Zubiri, isa sa mga mga miyembro ng Spice Boys, hindi niya itinuturing na karibal ang mga first termer congressmen na kasapi ng Young Guns.


"We welcome them to shine as well," ani Zubiri sa isang panayam kahapon.

Rep. Joey Salceda (Lakas, Albay) said his candidate now enjoys an "overwhelming majority" to reclaim his old post.


De Venecia was Speaker for six years during the Ramos administration.
