Filipino Communists Say "Only FDIs Get Rich" But the Komunistang Sosyal Begs to Differ

The old ideals of CPP-NPA legal fronts goes with, "Pero ang dayuhan lang magbenepisyo." Well, that claim can now be refuted by the University of Economics-Ho Chi Minh City as well as China's history. It's because FDIs, by definition, are foreigners who invest in the country. When investing in the country, here are a few rules to follow when investing in ANY country, Communist or not:

  1. FDIs may not be able to buy land but they can lease land. In short, they must follow the leasing laws if they want to continue doing business. 
  2. FDIs are required to pay their monthly, quarterly, and yearly taxes. Taxes are based on taxable income. There are deductible items such as itemized deductions, about expenses.
  3. FDIs are still required to follow environmental by-laws to keep the Communist state clean and green. 
  4. FDIs are still required to follow other rules like peace and order. 
  5. FDIs in short, must pledge allegiance to the glorious Communist State!
The FDIs do get rich but their income is TAXABLE. The Communist State must collect its revolutionary income tax from all businesses. Right now, FDIs are abounding in Vietnam. Vietnam would be taxing Jollibee, Apple, Starbucks, etc. These businesses must pay their monthly revolutionary tax based on taxable income. The Communist revenue officers will collect revolutionary tax from FDI. 

What FDIs will keep is ANYTHING after taxes. They will naturally want to keep money in the host country. It's because that money is allotted for OPERATIONAL EXPENSES. When they make more money - the amount of revolutionary tax gets higher. 

Pretty much, the CPP-NPA is very short-sighted. They will never reach true socialism because of that!
