Higher tabacco and Alcohol taxes coming soon
Abad said she supports Mandanas' efforts to help improve existing tobacco tax measures and simplify their administration to raise enough revenues to meet the government’s targets, prevent a fiscal crisis, and ensure sustainable growth for the country.
Yes, we support the government’s efforts to reform the tax law and simplify its administration," she said.
“Moreover, increasing excise taxes – particularly on tobacco products – will bolster the government’s revenue efforts, even as it helps protect our human resources by preventing the deaths of thousands of Filipino youth who might die of smoking-related cancers if they began or continued to smoke," she added.
