[Title] => EDITORYAL – Smuggling ng sasakyan talamak na naman
[Summary] => ILANG buwan na ang nakararaan, sinabi ng isang grupo ng mga dayuhang negosyante na ang Pilipinas ay "paraiso ng mga smuggler". May katotohanan ito. Matagal nang "paraiso ng mga smuggler" ang Pilipinas. Lahat ng klaseng produkto ay iniismagel dito. Hindi lamang mga pangunahing produkto na tulad ng bigas, asukal, sibuyas, semento kundi pati illegal drugs ay "ibinabagsak" dito.

[Title] => EDITORYAL - Tapyasin ang ulo ng mga smugglers
[Summary] => Isa ang Bureau of Customs sa mga pinaka-corrupt na ahensiya ng gobyerno. Ang kabulukang ito ng Customs ay hindi na lingid sa taumbayan. Karamihan sa mga opisyal dito at personnel ay yumayaman dahil sa masamang gawain. Madalas ngang marinig na may mga Hepa ang nagsisipagtrabaho sa Customs sapagkat naninilaw sila sa dami ng alahas sa katawan. Nakapaligid dito ang mga katiwaliang hindi na masugpu-sugpo.

[Title] => Lacson's dream: To arrest Lucio Co
[Summary] => Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Director General Panfilo Lacson has a dream: to arrest and send to jail Lucio Co, a known friend of President Estrada, on smuggling charges.
In one of his rare candid moments with reporters, Lacson said authorities have long suspected Co of being one of the country’s big-time smugglers.
However, he said police officers have not come up with evidence to pin down Co.

[Title] => A failed campaign
[Summary] => There was one interesting portion of Edgardo Espiritu’s testimony last week. The former finance chief said he used to see known smugglers at Malacañang. Asked to identify the smugglers, Espiritu looked flustered. The court allowed him not to identify the smugglers. Espiritu has since left with his wife for the United States, saying they have been receiving death threats.

[Title] => Solon asks Palace: What happened to Lucio Co probe
[Summary] => Whatever happened to the case of presidential friend Lucio Co, whom President Estrada himself ordered investigated for alleged large-scale smuggling?
Opposition Rep. Juan Miguel Zubiri (Lakas, Bukidnon) asked this question yesterday a few days after former Finance Secretary Edgardo Espiritu told the Senate sitting as an impeachment court that one of the reasons he quit the Estrada Cabinet was because several presidential friends were involved in smuggling.

[Title] => Customs watching suspected smuggler
[Summary] =>
Customs Commissioner Ramon Farolan has vowed to throw out businessman Robert Uy
from Customs premises at the port of Manila.
"We will come to it," Farolan told The STAR when asked whether Uy would be
bodily carried out if he is found in the bureau's office at the South
Harbor.
However, Farolan said Uy can still do business at the Bureau of Customs through
other people because "no law prohibits him from continuing with his
business."
Uy said he continues to transact business with the bureau through
representatives since former Customs Commissioner Nelson Tan had banned hi

[Title] => Still no takers for hot cars in 2nd auction
[Summary] =>
The government failed anew to sell 10 smuggled luxury vehicles as prospective
buyers did not show up during a public bidding yesterday at Manila's South
Harbor.
Customs Commissioner Nelson Tan, however, was not surprised, saying it was
normal for bidders to wait until Customs-set prices have been lowered before
making any bids.
The average price for each of the sport utility vehicles is P3.2 million -- an
amount which the bidders apparently found too high. Among the vehicles that
were for sale were a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and Range Rovers.
