In a move designed to discourage the Federal Reserve Bank from raising interest rates, the government has today announced the increase of all Pacific Orange tax rates from 28% to 30%. The Opposition leader Anthony O'Farrell has slammed the government's decision as yet another election campaign promise broken. "This Pan Red government has yet again proven itself unable amongst other things at handling the nation's economic matters. Mr Phanomyong promised to voters in January that he would not raise taxes yet here he is doing the contrary."
