i guess there's no definite decision yet for this. but we have to take note that een though this statement has been issued, companies would still consider the alternatives of the profit and loss ratio on where to get human power for outsourcing; the reality is, labor rate in US is still high compared to us.

The citizen of US right now still have a problem of employment because many US companies are overseas. The labor is cheap unlike if they are opening in US. That's why they want to impose this tax to help the Americans to have jobs. It can affects us but our country need to self sufficient also.

This is just pretty bad if this does take effect. Just think about all the people who will lose their jobs.

The call center job is really high paying. I hope that the call center jobs will remain in demand in the Philippines so that many Filipino people will not lose their jobs and be hungry again. We hope that we still have the best call center agents.
