It has been weeks that the system is down, which means that the SEC is back to the slower manual mode. Well, I&#8217;m not really that frustrated because we were [...]]]></description>

This is definitely not something to be happy about, as the Philippines is 71 out of 131 countries/economies ranked, and lagging behind its neighbors, including Korea (11), Taiwan (14), Malaysia (21), [...]]]></description>

The guidelines are spelled out in Revenue Regulation 15-2006. We will discuss this later at the Forum.]]></description>
