BOGOTA (Reuters) - Colombian President Ivan Duque looks likely to win approval for a long-delayed tax bill in his final year in office, but other unpopular reforms have little chance to pass a divided congress, analysts and lawmakers say.

Center-right leader Duque has never had a congressional majority and anti-government protests in May and June diminished his already-weak popularity, making it improbable congress will back reforms ahead of elections in May, when the left could win seats on the back of growing social discontent.
