| Message | Statement of the Finance Minister mr.Marco Sodingi in the Peoples'Assembly: ''Dear president of the Peoples'Assembly,dear members of the parties, it is time that we radically change the financial situation of our country.It is time to forget the capitalistic policies that were being implemented while Right Front was in charge.It is time to reinstate the Free and United Country's fair tax system that opposes injustice and that supports parity and equality of opportunity.With the proposed tax structure it will be impossible for the rich to become richer and the poor to become poorer.It is a shield for the faint,for the penniless,for those that think that they will always have someone else above them.So,it is our responsibility to introduce a better tax system,a fair tax system,a system that can ensure a better future for everyone,our children,our children's children,the young people,the adults as well as the old people.We strongly believe that this income tax proposal is a lifeline for everyone,that's why we await a ''yes'' vote from all the parties who want democracy in our country.Thank you'' |
