Luna, Apayao- The Provincial Government of Apayao (PGA) through the Provincial Treasury Office (PTO) headed by Acting Provincial Treasurer Wilma K. Ikitan is conducting the Handog Regalo sa Resibo Tax Caravan this November until first week of December.
The caravan is made possible in collaboration with the Municipal Treasury and Assessor Offices of the municipalities of the province.
The “Handog Regalo sa Resibo” is one of the means and ways to encourage residents to be responsible property tax payers in which receipts from payments are exchanged for raffle tickets.
This year the Handog Regalo sa Resibo Tax Caravan prizes are appliances like gasulettes, 8-liter jugs, solar lamps, and solar electric fans worth P.5 Million.
Former Governor Elias K. Bulut launched this caravan in 2010 in which he drew residents participation in paying their taxes by making each paid RPT as a ticket for the lottery draw. Since its beginning, there has been a noticeable rise in RPT collection, demonstrating favourable outcomes.
The caravan has already visited some municipalities. As planned, the PTO will continue to visit other communities. On December 4, 2023, the group will be in Kabugao. The schedule for Calanasan will be announced later.
