MANILA, Philippines – Leyte First District Representative Martin Romualdez urges the government to show "malasakit (care)" by approving House Bill No 6268 or the "Salary Standardization Law of 2015."
The said measure seeks to increase the compensation of 1.53 million government employees.
Romualdez, who is a guest senatorial candidate under the United Nationalist Alliance, says the bill needs to be passed as the needs of the people should be at the heart of public service.
In the same breath, he wants the personal income tax rate to be lowered as well.
