Teresa Aquino Oreta joined colleague Ralph Recto yesterday in opposing an Arroyo administration plan to seek the imposition of an additional P1 tax on oil products.
"Its only now that the people are getting a respite from market-dictated price increases with the lowering of world crude oil prices. We should not increase pump prices at this time by imposing an additional tax," Legarda said.
She said the collection of a new tax would cause prices of consumer products and services to go up.
