Cebuano news: Pagtul-id sa ahensya sa Customs moresulbar
sa mga anomaliya, matud sa Palasyo
Ni Susil D. Ragas
MANILA, Hulyo 26 (PIA) -- Maresulba na ang
tanang mga anomaliya sulod sa buhatan sa Bureau of Customs sa panahon nga
mapatuman na ang giplanong reporma sa administrasyong Aquino, sumala sa
Malakanyang kagahapon.
Matud ni Customs Deputy Commissioner Danilo Lim
nga pipila ka mga impormasyon mahitungod sa smuggling o pagpayuhot ang dili
klaro ug nagpabilin nga lalisunon tungod kay ila kining nadawat pinaagi sa
inpormal nga proseso.
Apan sumala pa ni Presidential Spokesperson
Edwin Lacierda bisan unsa pa ang isulti sa mga opisyales sa Customs, mahitabo
gayud ang kalit nga mga kabag-ohan sa maong buhatan sa oras nga mapatuman na sa
gobyernong Aquino ang pag-implementar sa mga reporma nga giingon ni Presidente
sa iyang State-of-the-Nation Address (SONA) niadtong Lunes.
Kung mahinumduman sa iyang SONA, ang Presidente
miingon nga ang Buhatan sa Bureau of Customs nagpadayon nga nakigkumpetensya sa
lain pang gikatahong korap nga mga ahensya ug kinahanglan na kining masumpo.
Matud niya nga luyo sa mga paningkamot nga
limpyuhon ang maong buhatan, apan ang pagpayuhot og mga butang, droga ug mga
armas nagpabilin gihapon.
Sa gibana-bana sa Department of Finance moabot
sa kantidad P200 bilyones ang nawala sa gobyerno resulta sa padayon nga
pagpayuhot.
Matud pa niya nga dili pwede nga magpabilin ang
maong kalihukan sa gobyerno ug kinahanglan nga mapahawa ang dili angayan nga
maglingkod ug magpabilin sa iyang puwesto sa maong ahensya.
