Tax relief removed by Mayor Isko

Here is one good reason why people should not vote Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso for president come 2022: This is one politician who does not care about the hardships that people are going through at a time when they have lost their jobs and their businesses are floundering. Before Moreno became mayor, city property owners used to enjoy some relief from their tax liabilities, with a 20-percent discount if full payments were made before the end of January the following year. Now, Moreno has drastically cut that period to Dec. 10 of the current year for them to avail themselves of that discount. Nang-iipit sa mga taxpayers, many of whom are hard put to find the wherewithal to meet that deadline, especially during this still-raging pandemic.
