Kim Liable to 300B Delinquent Accounts

Last Sunday's headline was BIR failed and still fails to collect 300B worth of internal revenue taxes (per COA-report).
Kim who is the current BIR Commissioner reasoned out that this amount came from previous administrations (GMA, ERAP, RAMOS, etc)..Be they might be, her justification is out of context and totally comical.
As a responsible revenue officer she has a job to inventory-take what are to be collected immediately, what are the potential collectibles and what are protested deficiency tax assessments.
ETM believes that she is only escaping the legal duties that the law vested in her shoulders. Please be reminded that 3 and a half years had passed by but she and her fellow revenue officers deliberately failed and ignored and are still failing and ignoring to collect the said amount at the expense of the Filipino people. This may be called 'misfeasance and nonfeasance' in a grand scale. And, revenue officers may face criminal and administrative penalties of acting incorrectly and irregularly and not acting at all on the tasks at hand. COA must file these charges at the Office of the Ombudsman for criminal case and Civil Service Commission for administrative case. Moreover, any taxpayer may also file the same charges against Kim and other revenue officers at the same forums.
Taxpayers should unite to fight all incompetencies and nonfeasance.
A course in TAX ACCOUNTING FOR RETAILER WHOLESALES, DEALER AND DISTRIBUTOR shall be held at Davao (Jan 20-21) and Gensan (Jan 23-24).
