Sweet victory? Cong. Suansing happy pet bill included in tax reform package

“God truly answers prayers!”
This is what Nueva Ecija 1st District Representative Estrellita Suansing said after the House ways and means committee agreed to include her bill imposing an additional P10 tax per liter of volume capacity on sugar-sweetened beverages and carbonated drinks.
“God truly answers prayers! My pet bill is now included in the Tax Reform Package 1. Thank you, Lord!” said Suansing.
We wonder if carbonated drinkers would say the same?
