Finance Secretary Jose Pardo batted yesterday for the eventual privatization of the Bureau of Customs (BOC), saying it might make the revenue-generating bureau more efficient.

At the same time, Pardo asked officials and the rank and file of the bureau to rally behind the efforts of the Department of Finance (DOF) at bridging the P100-billion national budget deficit expected this year.

Pardo was at the Customs offices in Port Area for the turnover rites for the bureau's new and returning commissioner, retired Gen. Ramon Farolan.
