She said that the BIR's brass acknowledged and appreciated the small and big contribution of the taxpayers and the agency’s personnel who do the yeoman’s job that sustain the growth of the country.
“Ang tax na bawat binabayaran natin ito ay nagre-represent ng life blood ng ating gobyerno,” she stressed in Tagalog.
BIR Region-1 covers the four provinces of Pangasinan, La Union, Ilocos Sur, and Ilocos Norte.
RDO-4 Chief Merlyn DV Vicente explained this year’s BIR theme’s “Salamat Sa Iyo” as gratitude of the BIR to the taxpayers.
“Because we acknowledged the contribution of our taxpayers no matter how small the amount is we acknowledged and we are thankful for it,” she cited.
RDO-4 based here is the biggest office in the region as it covers the burgeoning cities of Dagupan and San Carlos and 14 towns in Central Pangasinan.

Assistant RDO-4 Chief  Trina A. Villamil said that the event held here last Monday’s morning flag ceremony was a commitment among the employees of the BIR to exert more effort to the thrust of the government to collect this year P2.03 trillion, the P17 billion for the Region, and P4.77 for RDO-4.

“This is a thanksgiving for everyone part ng taxpayers and of course part ng employee sa bureau kasi in the collection of the target dapat magku- commit”.
Director Nacar tasked the personnel of the Region and the RDO-4 to pledge their commitment to efficiently attain the goal and promised to give their competent services to the taxpayers.
President Duterte wanted to stop corruption. Ayaw niya ng mahabang pila. Lahat dapat right amount of taxes shall be given to the government,” she exhorted.
  The P2.03 trillion national tax goals is the first amount after the Duterte Administration launches its tax reform’s Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN). Last year’s BIR target was P1.83 trillion.
