[Title] => NASTF looks into reports of rampant smuggling in Cebu
[Summary] => The National Anti-Smuggling Task Force (NASTF) is looking into reports of alleged rampant smuggling at the Port of Cebu where shipments of smuggled rice from China, Thailand and Vietnam are said to be shipped and declared as general merchandise.
The reports said shipments of highly-dutiable goods are diverted to the Port of Cebu where their release from Customs is, more often than not, done on "face value." It means "Customs authorities at that port of swallow hook, line and sinker" what the importer or importers declare in the entry," the reports said.
