Galunggong importation is illegal, says Sen. Cynthia A. Villar: Stressing there is no shortage of galunggong, Senator Cynthia A. Villar reminds BFAR deputy director for administrative services Sammy Malvas that its importation can amount to smuggling. Villar, chair of the Senate Agriculture and Food committee, tells Malvas that the country should not be importing galunggong since it is prohibited by law. She rejected Malvas’ claim that galunggong is being imported for canning and processing.
