[Title] => Study proposes scheme to rationalize incentive program
[Summary] => There is a need to revisit the rationale for tax incentives because conflicting objectives have become more pronounced.
According to the Fiscal Incentives Revisited, a study paper written by Dr. Erlinda Medalla, the problem arose from the critical need of government to generate revenues to implement its various projects, thus explaining its conservative stance in its fiscal incentives policies.
On the other hand, there is an equal need for a more "generous" incentive system to be in place for the country to be able to compete for foreign direct investments.
