MANILA, Philippines - Isa ang Kapamilya Young Superstar na si Judy Ann Santos sa mga artistang nag-iinit sa isyu ng P10-billion pork barrel scam. Hindi lang bilang isang artista kundi bilang isang ordinaryong mamamayan na nagbabayad ng tamang buwis.

“Hindi sa hindi ko siya naiisip. Naiisip ko siya! Hindi mo siya puwedeng hindi maisip kasi parte ka sa bansang ito na nagbabayad ng tax.

“At ako, kakatapos lang ng kaso. So, it makes me think, ‘What happened dun sa ibinayad ko? Kaninong bahay kaya siya napunta?’” pahayag ni Judy Ann sa isang interview kaugnay nang ini-endorse niyang Champion.

Matatandaan na noong January ay na-acquit si Judy Ann ng Court of Tax Appeals (CTA) laban sa tax evasion complaint sa kanya ng Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).

Nagmula ang kasong ito noong diumano’y hindi niya tamang pagdeklara ng kanyang mga kinita sa showbiz noong 2002 mula sa TV and movie projects and product endorsements.

Sa loob nang mahigit na walong taon ay ipinaglaban niya iyon kaya ganito na lamang ang galit at saloobin niya sa mga rebelasyon na lumalabas lalo na’t involved ang mga senador ng ating bansa.

Pahayag ng aktres, “Hindi siya nakakairita, nakakabuwisit siya!

“’Di ba, parang lahat naman tayo, bilang workers, hindi lang artista eh, lahat tayo nagbabayad ng taxes natin, and we try to pay kung ano ’yung dapat nating bayaran.

“And ’yung kagaya ko na nagka-kaso, sinabi ko naman na wala naman akong responsibility na tatalikuran lalo pa’t gobyerno ito.

“Pero bilang mamamayang Pilipino, kung ang gobyerno ay may karapatang maningil ng taxes natin, tayo, bilang tao, may karapatan din tayong malaman na sa’n ba napunta.

“Wala bang explanation? Hindi ba dapat meron din kaming rundown ng mga nangyayari sa pera namin?”

Diin pa ni Judy Ann, gaya raw ng ibang mamamayan, pinaghirapan nila ang lahat ng tax na kanyang ibinabayad.

“Dugo, pawis, at luha para sa aming mga artista ang kapalit ng trabahong ito at saka oras. We try to be responsible Filipino citizens.

“So, as politicians, please be responsible naman with your job dahil hindi madaling magtrabaho lalo pa’t may pamilya kang binubuhay. May pamilya kang... may mga bata kang gustong pagtapusin ng pag-aaral,” emote ni Judy Ann.

Gaya niya na nagkaroon ng kaso sa BIR, hinarap daw niya iyo ng buong tapang.

“But the case naman is not with the BIR. It’s with the government. BIR’s just doing their job — collecting taxes. They all just give it to the government. ’Yung government na ’yun ang magbibigay ng pera sa mga pork barrel.

“Parang ang point lang is, kung kami, pinu-push lang nang pinu-push magbayad, kakasuhan n’yo pa kami kapag may konting digits na hindi nabayaran, bakit hindi n’yo kasuhan ’yung mga pulitiko na malaking, malaking digits ang kinuha sa pera namin?” pahayag ni Judy Ann.

Judy Ann Santos Angry, Has Harsh Words For Government And Dirty Politicians [Video]

Judy Ann Santos is angry at our country’s dirty politicians and this is not for a role on TV or the silver screen.

The acclaimed actress has harsh words for the government and the officials being implicated in the recent “Pork Barrel Scam”.

In an interview with Aksyon 5, Santos said of the latest controversy to hit the government, “Hindi siya nakakairita, nakaka-bwisit siya.” [It (the Pork Barrel Scam) is not irritating, it’s infuriating.]

“Kami, pinu-push niyo ng pinu-push magbayad (ng tax), kinakasuhan niyo pa kami kapagka may kaunting digits na hindi nabayaran, bakit hindi niyo kasuhan ‘yang mga pulitikong malaking-malaking digits ang kinuha sa pera namin?” [You always push us to pay taxes, you even sue us when we miss paying a small amount, why don’t you also sue politicians who get large amounts from the tax we paid?] she added.

As for her message for policians, she said, “‘Di ba dapat meron din kaming rundown ng mga nangyayari sa pera namin? Kasi hindi naman namin yan hinuhugot lang sa langit at sinasapo, e. Dugo, pawis (at) luha (ang kapalit niyan) para sa aming mga artista. We try to be responsible Filipino citizens so as politicians, please be responsible naman with your job.” [Shouldn’t we also have a rundown of what happens with our money? We don’t just get money from thin air. For us actors and actresses, we give our blood, sweat and tears for the money we earn.]

Judy Ann Santos was sued by the Bureau of Internal Revenue in the past for allegedly not paying the correct amount of tax for the 2002 taxable year. The case was later dismissed but Santos was asked to pay P3.4 million in deficiencies plus a 20 percent interest per year for the amount due. - See more at: http://www.pinoystop.com/news/celebrity/2244/judy-ann-santos-angry-has-harsh-words-for-government-and-dirty-politicians-video#sthash.eVjSsMhz.dpuf

Judy Ann Santos airs frustration over pork barrel scam: “Hindi mo siya puwedeng hindi maisip kasi parte ka sa bansang ito na nagbabayad ng tax.”

“Bilang mamamayang Pilipino, kung ang gobyerno ay may karapatang maningil ng taxes natin, tayo bilang tao, may karapatan din tayong malaman na sa’n ba napunta [ang tax]? Hindi ba dapat meron din kaming rundown ng mga nangyayari sa pera namin?” For eight years, actress Judy Ann Santos fought the tax evasion complaint filed against her by the BIR (Bureau of Internal Revenue) for underdeclaring her celebrity earnings in 2002.

Judy Ann Santos took a jab at the P10-billion pork barrel scam involving 38 individuals, mostly government officials, at the Champion Fabri-Con press launch held Monday noon, September 23, at the Makati Shangri-La hotel.

The actress, now endorsing the laundry product’s new fabric conditioner, candidly told how “worry-free” the product causes her to be that she barely thinks even of the pork scam now undergoing investigation by the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee.

Expounding on her sarcastic response at the press conference proper, the young superstar told in an interview, “Hindi sa hindi ko siya naiisip. Naiisip ko siya!

“Hindi mo siya puwedeng hindi maisip kasi parte ka sa bansang ito na nagbabayad ng tax.

“At ako, kakatapos lang ng kaso. So, it makes me think, ‘What happened dun sa ibinayad ko? Kaninong bahay kaya siya napunta?’”

It can be recalled that on January 2013, Judy Ann was acquitted by the Court of Tax Appeals (CTA) of the tax evasion complaint filed against her by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).

The case stemmed from the actress’ alleged underdeclaration of her earnings in 2002 from TV and movies projects and product endorsements.

The BIR investigation showed that the actress acquired a P2.724-million tax deficiency and that she only stated about P8.033-million income despite earning P16.3 million in 2002.

Early this year, the CTA Third Division dropped the complaint and ordered, in a 46-page decision, that the actress pay P3.418 million for her income deficiency tax in 2002 plus 20 percent interest as penalty “computed from 2008 until fully paid.”

A CALL FOR TRANSPARENCY. Having fought the case for eight years, Judy Ann relayed that the misuse and abuse of tax by those in power is downright frustrating.

“Hindi siya nakakairita, nakakabuwisit siya!” she exclaimed.

The actress also stated, “Di ba, parang lahat naman tayo, bilang workers, hindi lang artista, e, lahat tayo nagbabayad ng taxes natin and we try to pay kung ano yung dapat nating bayaran.

“And yung kagaya ko na nagka-kaso, sinabi ko naman na wala naman akong responsibility na tatalikuran lalo pa’t gobyerno ito.

“Pero bilang mamamayang Pilipino, kung ang gobyerno ay may karapatang maningil ng taxes natin, tayo, bilang tao, may karapatan din tayong malaman na sa’n ba napunta.

“Wala bang explanation?

“Hindi ba dapat meron din kaming rundown ng mga nangyayari sa pera namin?”

Judy Ann mentioned that the tax she pays along with the taxpayers of the country is hard-earned money.

“Dugo, pawis, at luha para sa aming mga artista ang kapalit ng trabahong ito at saka oras!

“We try to be responsible Filipino citizens.

"So, as politicians, please be responsible naman with your job dahil hindi madaling magtrabaho lalo pa’t may pamilya kang binubuhay.

“May pamilya kang... may mga bata kang gustong pagtapusin ng pag-aaral…”

JUSTICE. The actress prodded those put in power by the people during election period to use the public funds to good use and that, hopefully, progress will soon be felt by the country.

“Di ba, sinasabi nila, ‘Vote right, vote right!’

“How can you vote right kung hindi mo naman pala alam kung sa’n dinadala ng taong binoto mo yung perang binayad mo?” Judy Ann said.

Stating her eight-year case once more, the actress lamented, “Eight years akong may kaso with the BIR.

"But the case naman is not with the BIR, it’s with the government.

“BIR’s just doing their job—collecting taxes. They all just give it to the government.

“Yung government na yun ang magbibigay ng pera sa mga pork barrel.

“Parang ang point lang is, kung kami, pinu-push lang nang pinu-push magbayad, kakasuhan n'yo pa kami kapag may konting digits na hindi nabayaran, bakit hindi n'yo kasuhan yung mga pulitiko na malaking-malaking digits ang kinuha sa pera namin?”
