The Bureau of Customs (BOC) must send a strong message to traders involved in the big-time smuggling of agricultural goods.
The Bureau of Customs must send a strong message to traders involved in the big-time smuggling of agricultural goods.Benguet lone district Rep. Eric Yap said the BOC can do so by filing air-tight, non-bailable cases against such smugglers, whose acts deprive Filipino farmers of their livelihood.
“Higit rin sa halagang ito ang muntik nang maging estimated loss ng ating farmers na nagpapakahirap na itanim, anihin, at dalhin ang mga agri produce sa ating mga hapag kainan ,” he said.“We are urging the BOC to file a case against those involved sa pagpasok ng mga container shipments na ito sa bansa . Bigyan natin ng sample ang agri smugglers, ipakita na may ngipin ang batas natin ,” the solon said.
Another seized shipment was consigned to Lalavy Aggregates Trading, which were declared as lobster balls and crabsticks. The BOC later discovered that they contained fresh red and white onions.
