Incoming BIR chief to tell Marcos on estate tax case: ‘Can you be a role model?’
Lilia Guillermo
MANILA, Philippines – Incoming Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) commissioner Lilia Guillermo wants president-elect Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to be a role model for Filipinos and comply with the High Court’s decision on the estate tax obligations of his family.
However, she noted that she has yet to see documents about it and needs time to go over them, even though the matter has been settled way back in 1997. In particular, she wants to know if the floated P203-billion figure is accurate.
“Puwede ba maging role model kayo? The Marcoses will now pay their taxes, because nag-comply sa batas, it came from the Supreme Court, it’s final and executory.’ ‘Yun lang naman ang sasabihin ko sa kanya, pero I should have the correct data. I should know what really is in that decision,” she told the ABS-CBN News Channel’s Headstart on Wednesday, June 22.
