00:00Pinagtiba ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ang Enhanced Fiscal Regime for Large-Scale Metallic Mining Act,
00:07na layong gawing masimple at patas ang sistema ng pagbubuwis sa pagmimina, si Kenneth Paciente sa Sandro ng Balita.
00:17Sa layuning maaayos ang pagbubuwis ng pagmimina sa bansa,
00:21pinirmahan ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ang Republic Act 12253
00:25o ang Enhanced Fiscal Regime for Large-Scale Metallic Mining Act.
00:30Batas na layon na gawing simple at patas ang sistema ng pagbubuwis sa mga mining companies sa Pilipinas.
00:36Sa ilalim nito, tatanggalin ang tax distinctions na binabase sa mining agreements.
00:40Titayakin din na patas na makukuha ng gobyerno sa mga minahan
00:43ang buwis sa pamamagitan ng pag-impose ng royalty sa mga minahan na nasa labas ng mineral reservation.
00:49This reform mandates mining companies that operate within the government's designated mining sites
00:57to pay a royalty of 5% of their gross output.
01:03Those operating outside mineral reservations, on the other hand,
01:07will be subject to a margin-based royalty on income from metallic mining operations.
01:12It also imposes additional taxes when a company's profit margin exceeds 30%,
01:18ensuring that the government receives its fair share from the extra profit
01:23and that the benefits will ripple into the lives of ordinary Filipinos.
01:27May probisyon din ang batas na ring fencing na pumipigil sa mga kumpanya na bawasa ng buwis
01:34sa pamamagitan ng pagsasama-sama ng kita at lugi mula sa iba't ibang proyekto.
01:39Dagdag pa ng Pangulo, pinalalakas ng batas ang mga mekanismo para sa transparency at accountability.
01:44When collecting taxes, each mining contractor is recognized as a separate taxable entity.
01:52This prevents the consolidation of income and expenses of all mining projects by the same taxpayer.
01:59Gone are the days when a mining contractor can bury its profits beneath the weight of losses.
02:05No longer can we use the one project's failure to conceal another project's success.
02:15Transparency is now the rule.
02:18Accountability, our standard.
02:21And fairness, the measure by which we move forward.
02:24Ipinunto pa niya na alinsunod sa batas,
02:27makikinabang na rin ang mga LGU at mga residente na kadalasan ay naaapektuhan ng mga minahan.
02:32In addition to the allotted national revenue collections,
02:35local government units will now receive 40% of the gross collections from excise taxes on mineral products,
02:43royalties and other taxes or fees.
02:46This ensures that the communities who bear the brunt of mines will also experience their benefits.
02:54Meanwhile, 10% of royalties from government-designated mining sites
02:58will go to the Mines and Geosciences Bureau and the Metals Industry Research and Development Center.
03:06This is done to guarantee that part of the revenues is reinvested in exploration,
03:11in research, above all, environmental protection and sustainable practices.
03:17Pinasusuri na rin ang Pangulo sa Bureau of Internal Revenue at Bureau of Customs
03:21ang lahat ng sales at export ng yamang mineral,
03:24pati na ang records ng mining companies sa tulong ng Mines and Geosciences Bureau.
03:28I-kinalugod naman ni Special Assistant to the President for Investment and Economic Affairs Secretary Frederick Go
03:34ang naturang batas.
03:35Malaking salik anya ito para maiposisyon ang pagmimina sa Pilipinas bilang key player sa global value chain.
03:41Maitataguyo din anya ng batas na ito ang pagunlad ng mga komunidad
03:45sa pamamagitan ng responsabling paggamit ng yamang mineral ng Pilipinas.
03:48Mula 2026 hanggang 2029, tinatayang aabot sa 25.08 billion pesos
03:55ang inaasahang revenue ng pamahalaan mula sa mining fiscal regime.
03:59Maliban sa inaasahang dagdag kita sa kaban ng bayan,
04:02itinutulak din ng batas ang responsabling pagmimina
04:05at mas matibay na proteksyon para sa kalikasan.
