MANILA: President Duterte (pic) on Monday sent a chilling message to companies and individuals who had not been paying correct taxes to the government: “You sons of bitches, pay up. If not, I will kill you.”Duterte sent the message to the tax cheats at the launch of Hardin ng Lunas at the Presidential Security Group compound in Malacañang. “You pay your taxes and pay it correctly because we need it to run government,” he added. But instead of discussing tax reforms, Duterte spoke about his bloody war on drugs, corruption in the government and his personal ties with some of his Cabinet members. You sons of bit**es, pay up or I will kill you?” he said, eliciting laughter from the audience.
