Jordan's new PM says will withdraw controversial tax bill

Jordan's Prime Minister-designate Omar Razzaz said Thursday he would withdraw a controversial tax bill soon after he has been sworn in by King Abdullah.

Razzaz told reporters after a meeting in parliament there was a consensus to withdraw the tax bill, which had sparked rare protests against IMF-driven economic policies that critics say have eroded living standards.
