[Title] => Index ends flat on continued lack of fresh leads
[Summary] => Share prices closed flat yesterday, with investors finding no fresh leads after modest losses earlier this week sparked by concerns over North Korea’s nuclear test, dealers said.
They said losses in index heavyweight Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) offset gains in Ayala Land Inc.
The composite index fell 1.71 points to 2,527.27 after moving in a narrow range between 2,521.89 and 2,531.71.
The broader all-share index fell 1.34 points to 1,554.60.
Decliners narrowly led gainers 43 to 42 with 57 unchanged.

[Summary] => The House of Representatives is planning to adopt a two-tiered value-added tax system to cushion the impact of VAT increases while raising revenues for the government, a lawmaker said yesterday.
At the same time, small oil firms urged Congress to consider raising excise taxes on petroleum products, which are exempt from VAT, instead of the proposed 12 percent VAT to prevent sudden price increases.

[Title] => Coming soon: Tax on liposuction
[Summary] => 
There’s a proposed sex tax, so why not a tax on liposuction as well?
In line with the administration’s move to tax the rich more than the poor, Palawan Rep. Abraham Mitra said cosmetic surgical procedures like liposuction should be levied higher taxes.
This, Mitra said, along with higher taxes on luxury items like sport utility vehicles (SUVs) would send the signal to the poor that the rich will be the first to be taxed by a government scrounging for money.

[Summary] => The government expects to generate at least P6.54 billion in incremental tax revenues from the indexation of excise taxes on cigarettes and liquor, or 20 percent more than the projected revenues from sin taxes in 2003.
