Seeing the need for awareness and understanding the Tax System of the Philippines, the ACG, Abrea Consulting Group launched its Nationwide Tax Road Show at St. Scholastica’s College – Manila last August 31, 2012. This road show is a national campaign on tax return towards nation building. Aside from SSC the ACG team has been to Mindoro, Laguna, Cebu, Davao, Palawan and Zamboanga, as well as schools including FEU and UA&P.
Raymond A. Abrea, CEO of the Abrea Consulting Group, was the main speaker of the event. He gave the students a brief background about Taxation. He mentioned some major problems in the Philippine Tax System and gave possible solutions to resolve the said problems.
First, he suggested an automated filing and payment option should be made available to lessen the long lines and to make payment of taxes as convenient as possible to payers. Second, a simplified tax system and a low flat rate were suggested in order for taxation to be favored. Third, an incentive system may be made to encourage compliance among tax payers. Lastly, Mr. Abrea suggested that there should be a strategic HR management in the BIR and a better compensation for the BIR employees.
To the delight of the students, the ACG team gave away planners during the Q & A forum.
Mr. Abrea and the ACG team also encouraged the Scholasticans to express their opinion and voice out their concerns through social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook. Through this, more people will be aware and encouraged to know and appreciate more the Philippine Tax System and make a change through simple ways.
Hoping to leave a huge impact to the Scholasticans, the ACG team ended the road show by showing an inspirational video entitled May Pag – asa Pa! Kami ang Kabataang Pilipino.
