PNoy ‘snubs’ salary hike bill

President Benigno Aquino 3rd refused to certify the bill raising salaries of all government workers because he was mad because of the insistence of Congress leaders to pass a measure that seeks to lower income tax rates.

A source close to both parties disclosed that Aquino was angry at Speaker Feliciano Belmonte, Jr. and Senate President Franklin Drilon for pushing the bill lowering income tax rates, making him look bad in the process.
