PLUGGING REVENUE COLLECTION LEAKAGE: Senator Sonny Angara (right), chairman of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, and Majority Leader Alan Peter Cayetano (left) asks officials of the Bureau of Customs (BOC) to explain the bureau’s reported failure to plug revenue collection leakages like smuggling, graft and corruption and incorrect valuation of imported goods. “Measures must be set in place immediately. Otherwise, the government will lose more potential revenues, and the BOC will continue to fail in meeting its revenue targets,” Cayetano said. (PRIB PHOTO by Romeo Bugante/19 May 2015)
